You arrive on a dirt ridge where wind and sea trade glances, the Caribbean unrolling below in a sweep of blue that dares you to look away. The tour begins with an all-terrain drive up a winding road—trees lean in as if to whisper directions—until the vehicle eases to a stop and the island opens into a full 360-degree panorama.

Hydrate before you go
Carry at least 1–1.5 liters of water per person; the climb is short but exposed and the sun is strong.
Footwear matters
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes for the rocky rise; sandals are fine at the beach but not for the ascent.
Sun protection
Use reef-safe sunscreen and a wide-brim hat—shaded spots are limited at the summit and on the sand.
Protect your photos
Bring a small microfiber cloth and plastic bag for your phone when near the surf and salty wind.
Sturdy trail shoes
Grip and foot protection for the short ascent and uneven ground.
Refillable water bottle
Staying hydrated in tropical sun is essential during the drive, climb, and beach stop.
