The next coastal village you will encounter is Anse La Raye (population 1,250). The name means Bay of Rays. Two rivers flow through town, cross each end of the beach and into the sea. They are the Grande Rivière de l’Anse la Raye and the Petite Rivière de l’Anse la Raye. One of the many charming aspects of Anse La Raye is the French and English colonial architecture. A top social event is the Fryday Night Fish Fiesta. Toe tap to Caribbean music while watching people dance in the street. Relish every morsel of fresh seafood caught and cooked by locals. Nearby is the Anse La Raye Falls. This multi-tier, 50 foot cascade is sure to please any fan of waterfalls.
