See Long Bay on this link for specific directions...
===================
The public access is no longer reached by driving past La Samanna. They no longer want you near their facilities and have blocked off the road. You are supposed to drive toward Bay Rouge and use the other entrance to the lowlands. There are gates here also, but they have motion detectors that will raise the gate when you approach. As soon as you get inside, a left turn will bring you to the Bay Long public access and parking and going straight will get you to the Plum Bay public access and parking. .

It used to be a short drive, just across the border, a left at the top of the hill toward La Samanna and a right at La Samanna. In a couple thousand feet you would be at the public beach access, about a mile in total. In 2011, the lowlands association blocked off all access from this direction. You must continue on another couple thousand feet to the combined entrance to Bay Long and Plum Bay. It appears to be blocked off also, but the gate will rise if you approach it. A quick left takes you toward Bay Long, but this entire route is about three times longer than the old route. Once there, a short access path leads to the rather rocky center of Bay Long. Samanna to the south has sand and the very northern end also has sand. The coastline curves back at this point as Plum Bay starts. The point between Bay Long and Plum Bay is called Point e Canonniere and features the French side sewage plant.
