Diamond Rock is an uninhabited basalt island rising about 175 metres above the sea south of the Grande Anse du Diamant beach, off the Caribbean island of Martinique. It lies roughly 2 kilometres from Pointe Diamant and covers only about 5.3 hectares, guarding the approach from the south to Fort-de-France, Martinique's main port.
