Hiking Up Terre-de-Haut, Les Saintes

A local guide welcomes you to this authentic hiking experience that takes you high above the coastal beauty of Terre-de-Haut island to remote and scenic places like Morel mountain and Fort Caroline, surrounded by cactus and frangipani trees. Experience breathtaking views of the bay of Les Saintes and find photo ops galore from your elevated vantage point. Then venture back down to Pompière Beach for a swim in the calm, warm waters of the Atlantic. You will also spend time in the charming local town, where you'll see traditional fishing dinghies known as Saintoises. An inherent part of both the cultural heritage and modern identity of the archipelago, these fishing boats give the island a distinctive character, as do the multicolored Creole houses in the village. Complete your experience with a taste of the local specialty, a delicate coconut-filled tart called “le tourment d’amour.”
