The deck hums with low conversation as the catamaran slips away from Black River pier and the shoreline loosens its grip. Salted air pushes at your face and the western horizon opens—an expanse of water that invites the eye to follow the sun as it leans toward the sea. On Océane, the light softens and the island’s basalt cliffs and sugarcane fields recede into a silhouette.
