I'll be on the island with my young kids next week. We've never been to this beach. I read mixed reviews on TA and a couple people here seem to like this beach and one restaurant in particular. I think I've avoided it because of mixed reviews and seems like sometimes a hassle to get to. We're a calm water no crowds kinda-family. Friars, Baie Rouge, Shoal Bay (at the end near Elodia's), Tintamarre. We love these beaches. Is this one worth a visit? Haven't done Pinel yet.

dmarie--Anse Marcel is a very calm water beach. However, it's not a cheap day. The restaurant is fairly expensive, plus they charge for chairs and umbrellas. Not sure whether they even have a kids menu.

We really enjoy spending a day at Anse Marcel. The water is calm and the vibe is cool and laid back. The food is fairly high end French and don’t know if that is good for your family. On the other hand, Pinel has calm water but can be busy. The food there at Yellow Beach is very good and kid friendly.

You get what you pay for...... great beach for kids. Depends what your expecting as far as justifying the price. We've always enjoyed our day there but not for everybody. It's an experience.
