It boasts a mountainous and volcanic terrain reaching heights of over 2750 feet on the top of Mount St Catherine, breathtaking sandy beaches, gorgeous crater lakes, waterfalls, rainforests and exquisite coral reefs. The three islands of Grenada, Grenada, Garriacou and Petit Martinique, are located in the Eastern Caribbean. You can take ferry boats over to the smaller islands. Grenada is known as the ‘Spice Isle’ due to its abundance of locally ground spices including nutmeg, mace, cinnamon, ginger and cloves and its culture of music, dance and food. You can literally smell the nutmeg in the air! It is one of the most beautiful of the Caribbean islands. Visitors can enjoy amazing hikes in the national parks, game fishing, yachting, watersports, tennis, golf, beach days and visits to chocolate, rum and nutmeg factories. There is a wonderful nightlife, excellent markets and fabulous music.
There are many attractions on the island including the Craft and Spice market, Belmont Estate, Rivers Antoine Rum Distillery, Laura’s Spice and Herb Garden, The Tower Estate, the Home of Blue Tea, L’Esterre Estate for a cocoa tour and plantation lunch tour, The Spice Basket, Molinere Underwater Sculpture Park, Nutmeg Processing Cooperative, Fort Frederik and Fort George and of course the wonderful beaches. The Underwater Water Park at Molinere Bay, just north of St George’s is amazing. It is a project founded by British artist Jason de Caires Taylor. There are 80 pieces in more than a dozen main works. The life-size sculptures include a man at a desk and a circle of children. Fish and sponges have created a fascinating mix of culture and nature. The park is accessible to snorkelers and divers.
The Nutmeg Processing Cooperative on Gouyave’s main road is very important to Grenada’s heritage. It is an enormous, fascinating nutmeg processing station offering tours through rows of drying racks which are covered with the fruit of nutmeg trees descended from the first ones planted by the British in 1843.
River Antoine Rum Distillery has been producing fiery rum since 1785. Visitors are shown all aspects of the smoky, pungent production process from the crushing of cane to fermentation and distillation on the interesting tours. You can taste and buy the potent rum. The Belmont Estate, similarly educates you on the chocolate process, showing traditional rural life at its best. The Spice Basket is a cultural theatre and tourist centre with a superb West Indian Cricket Museum.
The lush interior of the island should not be missed. You can visit the splendid Annadale Falls for drive-in access or hike to Concorde or Seven Sisters Waterfalls.
