Approach is easy.
From the south: spot various isles and islets, Two sisters, the famous "London Bridge" with arch, Caille Island (which seems one with the Ile de Ronde), to the north, Kick'em Jenny (or Diamond Rock) and behind that, Les Tantes.
From the north: you'll easily spot Kick'em Jenny and Ile de Ronde with Grenada looming in the background. (see photo)
The coasts of the Sisters and Ile de Ronde are clear of dangers.
Steer to the waypoint about 300 meters from the north point of Ile de Ronde. It is just where the transit between Diamond Rock and the northern point of Ile de Ronde closes. Advance toward the coast as the depth decreases slowly from 10 to 5 meters.
Anchor on the sand on about 5 meters, good holding. You can also anchor in front of a small beach further south, but this tends to be less comfortable.
Going ashore: on the beach.
