South of Castries, this splendid golden-sand beach remains largely off the tourist radar, not least because it’s a bit hard to find. Go in the direction of Morne Fortune, then head to the lower gate of the Sandals Regency Golf Resort & Spa, where the guards will show you the path that leads down to the beach.
