Poste Lafayette is on the windward north-east coast: a long, wild beach with casuarinas, a few small hotels and almost nobody else. The trade winds keep it cool and the lagoon choppy, which makes it more for walks and fresh air than for lazy swims.
A good stop if you're exploring the east, near the Bras d'Eau National Park.
