 Iles des Saintes : Profile
Located 10km S of Guadeloupe, this picturesque group consists of two main islands, Terre-de-Haut and Terre-de-Bas, and seven smaller ones.
There are about 3,000 inhabitants, split between the two main islands. There is just one doctor, and his home, on Terre-de-Haut, resembles a ship's prow and is something of a local landmark.
Clearance is no longer carried out at the Town Hall, everything can be done on-line at the internet cafe, where you can also pay mooring fees.
Last updated January 2012.
It is compulsory to use the new moorings unless they are all occupied when it is then permissable to anchor.
The main anchorage/mooring is at Bourg des Saintes.
