The lagoon in front of La Preneuse and the mouth of the Black River are usually flat in the morning: perfect for stand-up paddle or kayak. Paddle along the coast towards the Martello Tower, or up the estuary where fishing boats moor and small mangroves line the banks.

Rent boards and kayaks locally (or check if the villa has some).
