Les Saintes are a heavenly place for underwater diving and other pursuits...

During the 2012-2013 winter season, 2 dolphins set up home in the bay to the joy of all sailors and swimmers...

You can take a walk up to Fort Napoleon and take in the superb views of the marina and some of the smaller islets. Or take time out on the beautiful sandy beach at Pompierre.

There are very few cars on Les Saintes so, if you are not a good walker then you can hire scooters or electric cars from one of the many local hire companies...
