Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin: Discover the Lagoon from a New Perspective

A Mosaic of Natural Habitats

In northern Guadeloupe, the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin forms a vast coastal ecosystem where mangroves, seagrass meadows and reefs intertwine. These habitats do not function in isolation — their interactions help sustain the area’s marine biodiversity.
Our experience offers simple insights to help you understand this environment.

Cruising, Snorkeling and Discovery

Cruising through a remarkable landscape is an experience in itself. Understanding why mangroves matter, learning to recognise a seagrass meadow or seeing a reef as a habitat changes the way you experience the trip.
Depending on the itinerary and conditions, snorkeling extends this exploration beneath the surface.
Complete snorkeling equipment is provided free of charge for participants who do not have their own.
Spend less time collecting stops. Gain a deeper understanding of how these habitats connect.

Drinks and a Cold Buffet on Board

Water, fruit juice, wine and punch are available throughout the excursion. A cold buffet provides a relaxed opportunity to share a meal after cruising and snorkeling.
Discover the habitats. Share the moment. Enjoy the sea to the fullest.

A Sensitive Natural Area to Respect

Activities in the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin take place within a regulated framework. Anava offers only activities covered by its current authorisations. Following the crew’s instructions and navigation rules is an integral part of the experience.
Nature is no less fragile for being beautiful.
