Cascade aux Ecrevisses, located in Guadeloupe National Park, is a popular and easily accessible waterfall. The short, paved trail to the falls makes it suitable for families and those with limited mobility. While the site can be visited solo, guided tours of the larger national park are available for a more in-depth experience. Swimming in the pool at the base of the waterfall is allowed, providing a refreshing break. The area can get crowded, especially during peak tourist season (December to April) and on weekends. The visit typically lasts around 1-2 hours, and the cost is generally low, primarily covering parking fees within the park. Be aware that heavy rainfall can affect water clarity and trail conditions.
