Plage de Pompierre

Plage de Pompierre is a beach of white sand in Terre-de-Haut, framed by the mountains Morne Morel and Morne Rouge, facing turquoise Caribbean waters. The water is shallow and calm, with natural rock formations that create protected swimming areas without hazardous depths.

The site received official protection in 1930 to preserve its marine ecosystem and geological formations. This early recognition shows how important the natural value of the bay was considered to be for Guadeloupe.

The beach draws visitors and local people who gather beneath coconut palms to share meals in the traditional way of Guadeloupe. You will see iguanas and goats moving freely through the area, woven into the everyday fabric of this place.

The shallow and calm waters work well for families with children and those new to swimming. The spot is easy to reach, and shaded areas beneath the trees provide places to rest and cool off.

Motorboats and sailing vessels are banned from entering or anchoring in the bay, which keeps the place peaceful and undisturbed. This strict rule allows the marine life and shoreline to thrive without pressure from boat traffic.
