It's well worth a trip to Pigeon Island National Park. Well maintained with helpful wardens walking around who are willing to answer questions. Make sure you make the two climbs if you are able, the first by manageable path to Rodney Fort, the second, steeper and rockier, to the pinnacle giving great views of the causeway where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean. There is also a small beach (rent your sun beds when you pay your entrance fee, otherwise you have to go back to the entrance.)

Not a huge island, not alot to do, nice for a walk, will take maybe 30mins-ish to walk from one end to the other and up the fort and the hill, which will give you really good views of the bay. There are a couple of small but really nice beaches (you will need to pay if you want a sun lounger) but the water is clear and the beaches completely sandy. Nice small restaurant on there, we got some chicken wraps and they were fresh really nice with friendly staff.

We spent the day here (cruise port) and it was perfect. $10 each to get in the park and just a few of us on the beach. Snorkeling was good but not wonderful. I think the water was a bit cloudy when we were here. Umbrella & 2 lounge chairs for $9 and very nice staff. Fun boat comes by with yummy drinks in pineapples. Recommend highly if you want a quiet beach day without a ton of people!!

We visited Pigeon Island while staying at a neighbouring resort. There is a small entry fee, but it was worth it. The island is rich in history, and provided a day of hiking, swimming and snorkeling as well as a tasty lunch. I suggest wearing your hiking shoes as the walk to the top of the fort is rather steep, but completely doable. Also be sure to bring lots of water as it gets very hot at the top. There are gorgeous plants and birds and little lizards everywhere. After our morning hike, we were famished, and decided to have lunch at Jamb de Bois which is located in the park and was fantastic. We then spent the afternoon at the little beach within the park, where we enjoyed watching the boats come in and out of the marina, and swam, and snorkeled a bit. This was a great self guided outing. We felt safe, and enjoyed learning about the history of St. Lucia. Highly recommend.

Well worth a visit even just to appreciate the view from the lower of the 2 vantage points. Beautiful place, good for snorkelling around the small bay and a great afternoon on a lovely clean quite beach. Jambe De Bois (close to the small boat jetty) is a beautiful little spot for lunch, food and drink is very well priced and the location is superb.

Nice small park near Rodney Bay. We enjoyed seeing the ruins of the old forts. The views from the top of the two hills are truly spectacular. Be prepared for some seriously steep hiking. Don’t wear flip-flops or high heels. Your heart will definitely be pumping by the time you get to the top.

There is a lot to see in the National Park, well worth the time. Beautiful views. Lots of history. Don't just go left and hike to the fort and Signal Hill. Turn right past the admission gate and see the contrast of the surf between the east and west side of the island. We spent quite a bit of time just watching the majesty and power of the waves. Also, go to the restaurant (and order the roti!)

We stopped in St. Lucia with a cruise. We took a taxi to Pigeon Island and then paid the $10 admission to get in. We also bought the small guide for $5 that included a history of the area but also a short history of St. Lucia. All this was well spent money. The park is easy to walk, and the nice breeze and early morning easily made it for any heat. We walked the entire park following the trail to the various buildings and lookouts and found the walk rather easy as long as you have reasonable shoes. We then stopped by for a break at the small beach that by then was crowded with tours. It was still spacious enough for us. Snorkeling was ok especially next to the rocks. This was a great way to spend 3-4 hours on the island.

We visited Pigeon Island after it being recommended. We weren’t disappointed. You pay a small entrance fee to this national park. It has a fab hiking trail. You can hike up two points and take in the great views of the manmade causeway. You can view Martinique across the sea too! On one side of the causeway is the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic on the other. Tip: wear decent footwear. Don’t wear flip flops! We saw people in flip flops attempting to climb!

Had a nice visit to this national park. We climbed to the top of both peaks and took in the beautiful views. Learned some interesting history along the way. The climb is not extremely difficult, but I would definitely recommend hiking shoes or at least a good pair of tennis shoes; especially for the second peak (Signal Peak).
