More About Grenada

Grenada, or “Spice Island” as it is lovingly called, is the land of exotic flowers and rich spices, warm breezes and Grenadian charm all surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. The soft white sand beaches, crystal clear seas and delicious aromas will entice your senses. During the days seek out the lush tropical rainforests, dormant volcanos and cascading waterfalls, visit the boutiques in the modern malls, dive one of over 30 dive sites, or even charter a yacht - the choice is yours to do as you, please. When the day is over and the evening is setting in you will find ample elegant and unique dining experiences. The historic capital of St. George‘s is a charming harbour town with a delightful horseshoe harbour and narrow streets. Explore Fort Frederick which is perched atop Richmond Hill and take in a 360° view of St George's. Or visit Fort George, a most important historical structure which has played a part in the political and military changes that have taken place on the island. The town is transformed each Saturday when the local market fills with local traders selling their fare including fresh fruit, spices and vegetables. As Grenada is a huge producer of cacao, a must-see is the stunning Belmont Estate - a cocoa-producing plantation and organic farm. Set in 400 acres of lush rolling hills, this 300-year-old working plantation offers informative tours and has a fantastic restaurant, a museum, a craft co-op, animals, a goat dairy and a gift shop. Travel inland to the verdant landscape of Grand Etang National Park where you'll see a wide variety of flora and fauna including a wealth of colourful tropical birds, lizards, frogs, possums and wild monkeys. This is one of the most beautiful rainforests you'll ever see and it's home to an amazing lake which has formed in an extinct volcano.

Leisure Activities

Beaches

Some of the best beaches in the Caribbean are found in Grenada. The pristine white sandy beach at Grand Anse is one of the finest and, with sheltered waters, it's ideal for swimming and sun bathing. Another beautiful beach is La Sagesse which is situated on the south eastern tip of the island.

Hot Springs

Although Grenada is a volcanic island, it is now, thankfully dormant, but there is a submerged active volcano some way off the shores out at sea. This has created six warm water waterholes in the northeast of the island called the Sallee Boiling Springs. It is an area of spiritual importance to the locals and many visitors throw coins into the fountain and make a wish.

Rainforest

If you’re feeling particularly active, why not try a hiking trip in the Grand Etang National Park and Forest Reserve. There you will discover a fantastic dormant volcano which now forms the Grand Etang Lake. There’s an abundance of wildlife in the area including the rare Mona monkeys, armadillos and the local Grenada dove.
