The catamaran slips away from Grande Anse d'Arlet with the island shrinking behind you—salt air pressing forward, the hull humming as turquoise water opens into a mosaic of reefs. Within an hour the captain drops anchor between Pointe Burgos and Pointe Lézarde; the sea here dares you to look down. Schools of sergeant majors and trumpetfish patrol shallow ledges while lobsters tuck into crevices and the occasional barracuda scans the blue.
