Table du Diable

La Table du Diable is an uninhabited islet on the Sainte-Anne peninsula. It belongs administratively to the town of Sainte-Anne. It is a rectangular volcanic islet with a plateau on steep cliffs.

La Table du Diable is an 11-meter-high rocky islet covering an area of 0.4 hectares.

The islet owes its name to its rectangular shape (table) and the breaking Atlantic waves that batter it daily (Table du Diable).

It boasts a magnificent beach called Anse à Prunes. It's a half-moon-shaped beach of fine sand, but unlike Plage des Salines, it's not very busy. So if you're looking for peace and quiet and are close to Les Salines, don't hesitate to opt for Anse à Prunes.

The Table du Diable is home to a number of protected birds, including the Brown Noddy, the Bridled Tern and the Sooty Tern.
