Petit Mustique

12° 50.3′ N · 61° 11.7′ W

A steep, uninhabited 100-acre island a mile south of Mustique, ringed by cliffs and strong currents, with no easy landing or beach - a landmark to pass, not a stop.

Practical

Coordinates from Wikipedia. Hilly to about 340 ft, with almost continuous cliffs; Dry Rock lies off the south-west panhandle with a reef about 500 m south-west of it, and tiny Petit Cay lies between Petit Mustique and Mustique (Wikipedia). Infamous for a fraudulent sale in which buyers were promised a flat island with a large beach. Give the island and its rocks a wide berth on the passage between Mustique and Canouan.
