Motor sailed until we cleared wind shadow near Le Carbet and then had great sail south. Grande Anse is a confusing anchorage with all of the semi defunct moorings. Dropped anchor but dragged for 50 feet before catching. Addie and I headed ashore and walked the treacherous morne champagne to Anse d’Arlet. Nice boardwalk and beach there. Headed back in road. Neighbor who was on mooring was concerned that we would swing into him since we were in anchor. He suggested that we take the nearby mooring but its rode was frayed so we headed to another that I confirmed was secure. But this one was too close to the channel according to a kayaker so we anchored but neighbor said we were too close. So we anchored again a little further out. Fifth time a charm. Just enough  time to make our reservation at Kalua.  Great!
