Ande De Sable

Översikt

At Anse de Sable (Sandy Beach) in Vieux Fort, early monrning light may see a leatherback turtle scurry back into the blue water of the Atlantic Ocean after having laid her eggs.

At noon, the air is thick with the cries of scantily-dressed boys playing football or cricket with a coconut branch and a tennis ball.

And the sun sets on Rastafarians riding bare-back on their small, tough Creole horses in the rolling surf while in the distance, fishing canoes bring home the day´s catch.

Night time sees twinkling lights in every rum shop around the island and the excited shouts of men playing dominoes.

Oh, and by the way . Anse de Sable is God´s Own Bay when it comes to windsurfing and kitesurfing. The wide open bay is entirely sandy underfoot and you can ride and practice those new tricks and jumps safe in the knowledge that there are no gnarly reefs, rocks or other underwater obstacles to land on.
