Les sources chaudes de Dolé
"Capès" and "Bain des Amours" are deemed to be effective against rheumatism. Water at 33 ° ... thank you to Soufriere volcano. Until the 6O years Gourbeyre had a real vocation resort, thanks to the exploitation of hot springs of Dole and the "establishment of hot baths." At that time three sources were concentrated around Gourbeyre: "La Digue" and its large basin that disappeared today, "Bain des Amours" and "Capes". Following the eruption of the Soufriere in 1976 the establishment of hot baths was closed down. Nevertheless, it is these magnificent sources where everyone can come to swim freely ... Dole produced mineral water Guadeloupe "capes" approved by the Ministry of Health.
