It’s the kind of beach that feels like a secret, even when you know exactly where it is.

Tucked away on the southwestern coast of Saint Lucia, Anse Mamin is a secluded stretch of sand just a short boat ride or walk from the more well-known Anse Chastanet — but it feels worlds apart.

This week’s Caribbean Photo of the Week, captured by Caribbean Journal reader David L. Maisonneuve, showcases the untouched beauty of Anse Mamin, where volcanic sand meets the calm, clear waters of the Caribbean Sea. Towering palms lean into the breeze, and the beach is framed by dramatic cliffs and thick jungle, offering a rare combination of wildness and tranquility.

It’s a place where the only sounds are the rustle of palm fronds and the gentle lap of the surf — and where time seems to disappear.
