The Domaine de l'Etang is located at the entrance to the Plage de l'Étang which is only 2 km from the center of Vieux-Habitants. Its direction is very well indicated from the RN2.
Formed by pebbles and black sands, Plage de l'Etang is a very beautiful beach which has kept all its wild and authentic character, but also above all, has an abundant fauna dominated by a high concentration of crabs of different species: crabs white, touloulous, zagayas, sirik crabs, etc. As its name suggests, this beach is crossed by a large pond which rises in the heights of the Soufriere, and flows into the Caribbean Sea.
The beach of the pond is equipped with carbets, toilets and showers, arranged in the open air, and can also be the starting point for a very beautiful hike along the coast, leading to the town of Old inhabitants, passing through the coconut groves.
