Even though the island doesn’t have permanent residents, it has a beach bar and recreational water sports facility on it. It is located on the north side of North Sound, opposite Virgin Gorda. The island was declared to be a National Park in 1988.[1] The island provides habitat for the common Puerto Rican ameiva (Ameiva exsul), crested anole (Anolis cristatellus wileyae), barred anole (Anolis stratulus), and the big-scaled least gecko (Sphaerodactylus macrolepis macrolepis).[2] The island's flora includes agave (Agave missionum), and copperwood (Bursera simarouba).[3] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bvitourism.com/wtd/prickly-pear-national-park|title=Prickly Pear National Park|publisher=BVI Tourism|accessdate=1 November 2014}} {{British Virgin Islands}}{{BVI-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite book|url=https://archive.org/details/atollresearchb2412511smit/page/50|title=Atoll research bulletin - Biogeography of the Puerto Rican bank|first1=Harold|last1=Heatwole|first2=Richard|last2=Levins|first3=Michael D.|last3=Byer|volume=251|pages=50|publisher=The Smithsonian Institution|location=Washington D.C.|date=July 1981|oclc=45726059}} 3. ^{{cite book|url=https://archive.org/details/atollresearchb2412511smit/page/28|title=Atoll research bulletin - Biogeography of the Puerto Rican bank|first1=Harold|last1=Heatwole|first2=Richard|last2=Levins|first3=Michael D.|last3=Byer|volume=251|pages=28|publisher=The Smithsonian Institution|location=Washington D.C.|date=July 1981|oclc=45726059}} 1 : Uninhabited islands of the British Virgin Islands |
