The piece of Caribbean beauty known as the spice isle of the Caribbean. Our criteria for chosing the gorgeous island of Grenada this month centered mainly around this country’s rebound from the devastation of Hurricane Ivor and the recovery of their tourist industry.
Grenada is by far one of the more easy going islands and visitors will be hit by the friendliness of the locals just as the warm Caribbean sun. The beaches, ambiance and culture of the island will grab you and send you into pure bliss and enjoyment for your stay.
We recommend a morning stroll on the famous Grand Anse beach and a stop at a local bar for a cool Caribbean fruit drink – try the passion fruit or the mango and you will not be dissappointed.
We have also found that many visitors are being drawn into land ownership and rental properties in Grenada. With the stable and progressive Government and their proactive policies investing in Grenada has never been better. Though unfortunate the reality is that since the devastation of the hurricane many homes along the beautiful coastline have gone up for sale. Many are being rebuilt and this time according to strict hurricane codes, certainly worth a look in our books.
However, do not spend all your time on business whilst on your Caribbean Holidays, Grenada has much much more to offer.
Take a day trip to Carricou or Petit Martinique, just two of the absolutely spellbounding islands around the main island of Grenada; Visit one or more of the astounding waterfalls; take advantage of your superior exchange rate and cheap prices and buy some local art or artisian craft or; try their National Dish of goat water and test your taste buds to the fullest.
To get around the island there are bikes, mopeds, cars, jeeps, ferries and taxis for your convenience. This makes exploring this little island even easier. Roadways, maps and directions from locals are always readily available so don’t worry about heading out for your day with water and sunscreen in hand of course.
With all this, we at Caribbean Insider’s Guide have one recommendation – Go Grenada, you will not regret it.
