Not for the faint hearted! First of all you have to get to the rock by yacht/ fishing boat and then getting ashore can be challenging/ downright dangerous with large swell and currents. SW corner there is a small rocky beach. The ascent is very steep - some climbing involved and much cactus/ thorn/ very nasty stinging plants. View from the top is well worth it. If you're passing please look out for the flag at the top, and if you make it to the top please take a new (Grenadian) flag to put up! This ascent took 2.5 hours up (chopping through bush) and 20 mins to descend. Hard to know if to categorize the activity as a hike or climb! V hard hike but easy climb. I'll call it mountaineering.
