The tourism district of Baie Nettle or Nettle Bay has the unique distinction of having ocean and lagoon beaches. Unfortunately, this area has been dramatically effected by the hurricane of 2017. Only the Hotel Mercure has reopened, while all the beach bars on the ocean side are gone for the time being.

Driving towards Marigot, the hotels and condominium buildings to the right all have wonderful lagoon waterfront. With perfect water quality in this area, the Lagoon is well suited for water-sports and swimming. As there is no surf and the water is shallow for a long way, Nettle Bay's lagoon-side is a safe spot for children to enjoy the water.

The ocean beach is less suited for bathing, as the water is shallow with a rocky bottom.
