Anse Chastanet is an amazing beach – to get there you can either drive or take a boat-taxi from Soufriere.

In Soufriere we got some local food from “Skippers” and drove to the beach to enjoy a calming picnic. I really liked the cassava root… and the leftovers we saved for the fish.

The water was so clear that I could see the bottom! Even before we jumped into the water I could already see the crabs, the corals and the fish swimming around. It was so beautiful! My dad took his underwater camera to take pictures, I took the cassava and started to feed the fish – you would never imagine that so many fish actually lived in this reef!
