Pleasant path between sea and mangrove in an idyllic location. The sea is like a lake because we are near the Grand cul de sac marin. The path provides access to several very pretty small beaches. Mangrove trees are present throughout the route with other tropical species. Arriving on the other side of Pointe Sable de Bar allows you to observe a magnificent panorama of the old cane shipping port at Beautiran and the Petit-Canal dock. Long road but without difficulty.
