About
Quick facts: This small island was a stopover point for pirates in the 18th century. It covers only 12 hectares and features small waterfalls that flow directly into the Caribbean Sea.
Highlights: Imagine having your own private island that you can reach by a small boat amid clear turquoise waters. The small waterfalls at the edge of the island create charming water curtains that you can swim under.
Insider tips
- Bring your swimming and snorkeling gear to explore the marine life around the island.
- The best spot for photos is the southwestern corner where the waterfalls meet the sea.
- Avoid weekend visits as locals flock there.
- Do not forget insect repellent as mosquitoes can be bothersome especially around sunset.
