📍 Getting There
🚶Short walk to the beach
East of St. Rose is a small village called Mourne Rouge. Go to the small habour and ask some of the fishermen for a transport to the island. Pay about 15 Euro per person for the crossing. It may cost more when the fisherman stays with you all day long. It is always good to have a rescue boat.
