About the experience

Exploring the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin by boat means spending a day in the heart of an iconic Guadeloupean lagoon, renowned for its diverse landscapes and tranquil waters. Designated a nature reserve, this protected area offers a unique immersion amidst mangroves, unspoiled islets, and a rich marine life.

Departure is scheduled for 8:30 am from the marina, with a pleasant sail towards Rivière Salée. This natural passage marks the entrance to the lagoon and allows you to appreciate a calm environment, far from the hustle and bustle of the coast.

The first stop is at Îlet Caret, famous for its sandbar surrounded by turquoise waters. It's the perfect place to swim, relax, and fully enjoy the surroundings. Nearby, you can explore the coral reef and the Îlet Caret shipwreck, ideal sites for snorkeling and observing marine life.

The journey then continues towards Îlet de la Biche, a more secluded and less frequented island. This stop offers a peaceful setting, perfect for a final swim or simply relaxing amidst nature.

Throughout the day, drinks and snacks are included on board (water, juice, sodas) for optimal comfort during the trip.

Options are available to personalize the experience, such as a meal, a bottle of champagne, or the use of a Seabob to explore the lagoon in a fun and dynamic way.

Please contact me via messaging to arrange these options before the trip.

An ideal excursion to discover the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin in a unique way, combining relaxation, nature, and water sports.

    Super, Youri nous a très bien accueilli. La mer était très agitée, il a assuré et rassuré les enfants. Une belle journée d'échanges, pas seulement pour faire notre conducteur. Nous avons apprécié la mise à disposition de la musique et le repas. Youri est à l'écoute des volontés de ses clients. Seul petit point à améliorer, le départ à l'heure dû au retard du traiteur. Très bonne communication avec l'associé de Youri en amont qui répond facilement et rapidement aux questions. Merci encore Youri pour cette journée à Petite Terre au départ de St François, un magnifique souvenir pour petits et grands.

    We were delighted to discover the Îles des Saintes with our very friendly captain, Youri. He adapted to what we wanted to see and showed us some truly beautiful places. His boat is very comfortable with several seating areas both at the front and back, and a table for enjoying a little rum!

    Great day on this very functional and pleasant boat. A large gazebo can be set up to enlarge the shaded area and it's a real plus! Scotty the skipper was adorable and made sure we had a great day. Thanks for everything!
