Hog Island sits off Grenada's south coast, joined to the mainland by a causeway, and it has stayed almost entirely undeveloped, with a beach on the southern side, scrub across the interior and a single beach bar that opens on Sundays and draws the yachting crowd anchored in the bays around. The anchorage here is one of the best hurricane holes in the southern Caribbean.

What you actually see

  • The undeveloped island - scrub and beach with almost nothing built on it.
  • The Sunday bar - the one beach bar and the crowd it draws.
  • The anchorage - one of the region's better hurricane holes.
  • The causeway - the link making the island reachable on foot or by car.

When to go

December to May is the dry season. Sundays are when the bar runs and boats gather. Hurricane season runs June to November.

Honest expectations

There are no facilities beyond the one bar and it does not open every day. The beach is small and can be busy on Sundays. The causeway road is rough.

Nearby

Woburn is north, and Mt. Hartman is west.
