A long, calm beach running beside the runway of George F. L. Charles Airport, minutes from central Castries.
Practical
Coordinate is the OpenStreetMap beach outline. Calm water for a short swim or walk (Saint Lucia Tourism Authority); the airport runway runs parallel to the beach (Wikipedia). Not a yacht anchorage: approach is open to the north-west and close to the airport. Handy if you are meeting crew on a regional flight.
Best for
A swim while waiting for a regional flight
