Plage de l'Anse Trabaud, Beach in Sainte-Anne, Martinique.
Plage de l'Anse Trabaud stretches for nearly two kilometers along the southern Atlantic coast of Martinique, featuring fine white sand bordered by coconut palms, sea grapes, and native shrubs that provide natural shade for visitors.
This remote beach has remained largely undeveloped throughout its history, preserving its natural character thanks to difficult access that has protected it from commercial tourism development and mass visitation.
The site embodies the simple Creole lifestyle by combining pristine sandy beaches with local vegetation, representing the importance of natural conservation in Martinique's coastal heritage and environmental consciousness.
Access requires a 30-minute drive along a rough dirt road from Sainte-Anne, with a 2.50 euro vehicle fee collected at a barrier, and visitors must bring their own food and water as no facilities exist on site.
The beach is known for tolerating discreet naturism and attracts bodyboard enthusiasts who appreciate the regular waves, while its isolation naturally limits crowds to those willing to navigate the challenging access route.
