Crayfish Waterfall

Crayfish Waterfall, Waterfall in Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe.

Cascade aux Écrevisses is a waterfall located within Guadeloupe National Park that flows through dense tropical vegetation and collects in a natural pool at its base. The water descends through thick greenery before gathering in this clear basin surrounded by forest.

The waterfall lies on the Rivière aux Écrevisses in Petit-Bourg, Basse-Terre, close to the Route de la Traversée (D23). A short developed trail along the Corossol river leads from the road to the fall, and the site now receives about 200,000 visitors a year.

The name refers to crayfish in the river; the site lies on the Rivière aux Écrevisses in Petit-Bourg, reached by a short marked walk along the Corossol from the Route de la Traversée. It is one of Guadeloupe's most visited natural sites, receiving about 200,000 visitors a year, who bathe in the pool below the fall.

Access is via a 10-minute walk on a paved path starting from the parking area on Route de la Traversée. The walkway is well-maintained and easy to navigate for most visitors.
