Anse Marcel is my favorite place on the island, hands down. As others have said, it's not for everyone, but it sure is it for me. Very calm water, generally you can just walk straight out. Food is fabulous (left side of the beach as you are facing the water). Some think the drive there is an adventure; it's just another hill or two as far as I am concerned. I go there several times each trip because I love it so.
