Anse Noire

✨ Hidden gem

Anse Noire sits halfway between Trois-Îlets and Anses-d'Arlet on Martinique's southwest coast — drop the hook here and you've got good holding on a clean bottom with a striking dark-sand beach backed by lush tropical hillside right in front of you. It draws a crowd for good reason, so expect company on weekends, but the setting is raw and beautiful in a way that feels a world apart from the busier anchorages to the north.
