This is the cruisers hub on Martinique and there are a TON of boats anchored here but room for plenty more! The area close in to the pier at St Anne is blocked off with yellow swim buoys but anywhere outside that is fair game. Make sure your anchor is set as there are spots with rubble and poor holding as we found out. The pier is pretty much devoted to dinghy tie-up and it is recommended to lock it. Good protection but there can be a light swell coming in too. Ashore the town is really pleasant with bakeries, plenty of snack shops and restaurants, gift shops, a produce and fish market, an 8 a Huit and couple other supermarkets. You can tour the church and enjoy the square with its old trees as well as take the path behind the church up to the shrine for a nice view. The coastal trail to Caps Trace starts in Anse Caritan, south of town where there are quiet beaches. Or you can walk north out of town and over the hill bridge to reach either the short bike path or the long white beach that leads toward Club Med. This is a much busier beach but has a good vibe. There is a dive shop at the foot of the bridge near the beach. A tourist office is at the foot of the northern side of the bridge.
