Anse Caritan Anchorage and Beach

14° 25.6′ N · 60° 53.3′ W · approximate

The quieter southern end of the Ste-Anne anchorage, off a small beach and hotel, with a floating dinghy dock and good holding in sand.

Practical

Position is approximate, offset into the water west of Plage de l'Anse Caritan (OSM). Anchorages.co reports good space, a pleasant if sometimes busy feel, and a floating dock for dinghies. Multihulls World anchored 'off Caritan creek' as a calmer first night than the marina. Noonsite says the 'Leader Lavrie' laundry is at the back of the Anse Caritan resort: land at the small floating dock in front of Creola Beach restaurant, about 1 km west of the town dock, then walk about 300 m up the path to the left. It is open every day, and the washers dispense their own detergent.

Best for

A calmer night near Ste-Anne, laundry ashore
