Plage de Marigot (Terre-de-Haut)

15° 52.4′ N · 61° 34.7′ W

A sheltered north-coast bay below Fort Napoléon, with a short beach and the UCPA sports centre on the slope - a calm swim after the fort visit.

Practical

Position is the Plage de Marigot beach polygon in OSM; Baie du Marigot lies to the north (15.87954,-61.57705). Watch for a manchineel tree mapped at the beach (OSM) - do not shelter under it in rain. Charted wreck 'La Broumine' (mast showing) at 15.87667,-61.5775 off the bay - a hazard for dinghies.

Best for

A calm swim near the fort
