Îlet du Gosier is a small islet off the coast of Guadeloupe, known for its white-sand beach, turquoise waters, and iconic red-and-white lighthouse. It's a popular spot for swimming, snorkeling, and picnicking. Accessibility is typically by a short boat ride from the mainland. Visiting solo is common and enjoyable for relaxation, while guided tours often combine the islet with other nearby attractions. Seasonal restrictions are minimal, though the rainy season (June-November) may bring occasional disruptions. The cost is relatively low, mainly covering the boat transfer, with the typical visit duration ranging from a couple of hours to a full day. Remember to bring your own food, drinks, and sun protection, as facilities on the islet are limited.
