PETITE-TERRE: MOTORBOAT DAY

Embark on an exceptional day on a string of preserved islets, where wildlife and crystal-clear waters offer a natural spectacle of rare beauty.


Your adventure starts at dawn at the Saint-François marina, the starting point for your crossing to the Petite-Terre archipelago. After only forty-five minutes of dynamic and comfortable sailing on the waters of the Atlantic, you will reach this wild sanctuary classified as a nature reserve. Anchorage in the turquoise lagoon, protected by a coral reef, marks the beginning of a total immersion in an environment where nature reigns supreme. You will first discover the mainland during a guided tour that will allow you to observe endemic iguanas, coastal flora and the historic lighthouse that watches over these uninhabited islands.

After this exploration rich in lessons, conviviality is in the spotlight with a traditional aperitif followed by a tasty Creole lunch served in the shade. This moment of gastronomic sharing is the ideal opportunity to taste local flavors in an idyllic setting, lulled by the breath of the trade winds. The afternoon is then entirely devoted to relaxation and underwater exploration in the calm, translucent waters of the lagoon. Equipped with your mask and snorkel, you can swim among the tropical fish, rays and turtles that inhabit this exceptional coral garden.

This day in Petite-Terre is a real enchanted break, far from all the hustle and bustle, offering a perfect balance between naturalistic discovery and tropical relaxation. By choosing the motor boat for this excursion, you optimize your time on the site to fully enjoy every moment in this postcard setting. You will return to Saint-François at the end of the day with the feeling of having discovered one of the most secret and best protected jewels of the French Antilles.
