It is a picturesque place with fine examples of French and English colonial architecture.〔site:http://www.stlucia.gov.lc anse shows mix of spellings Anse La Raye and Anse-La-Raye〕 The name Anse la Raye is derived from the rays that are found in the bay, the English translation means Bay of Rays. Two rivers flow into the bay, these are the Grande Rivière de l'Anse la Raye and the Petite Rivière de l'Anse la Raye. On a Friday night there is a fish fry where the local fishermen showcase their skills and where lobsters, fish and lambi (conch) are cooked and eaten. The Fish Fry is located on Front Street which runs parallel to the beach. The local Catholic church was built in 1907, but records show that a chapel has existed since 1765. The present church has murals painted by the St Omer Family. Nearby attractions include the Anse la Raye Falls and the River Rock Falls. ==Gallery== Image:Anse La Raye.png|View of Anse la Raye Image:Anse la Raye from the Dock.png|View from the Dock Image:Anse la Raye Bay2003 1.jpg|Fishing boats at Anse la Raye Image:Anse la Raye Bay2003 2.jpg|Seafront at Anse la Raye 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anse La Raye」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
