Grenada

Often referred to as ‘the spice island’, Grenada is as enigmatic, heady and sensuous as the spices that it grows. Succumb to the individual charm of this romantic destination, with its distinctive culinary influences, rainforests, waterfalls and idyllic harbour.

Situated in the south of the Caribbean at the foot of the Windward Islands, Grenada is attractive, green and lush with wonderful walking routes through the tropical rainforest at Grand Etang. Swim in the mesmerising Seven Sisters and Concord waterfalls inland, or make the most of the immaculate beaches. Ideally positioned for sailing, why not charter a yacht or catamaran and spend some time meandering through The Grenadines, or take a day trip to sister islands Petit Martinique and Carriacou. Located in St. David, the Laura Land Herb and Spice Garden has numerous samples of trees, herbs and spices grown on the island, where you can take a tour to discover the traditional herbs used in local medicine. The people here are warm, friendly and welcoming and always willing to share their culinary secrets. Be amazed by the delectable ‘Oil Down’, a mélange of callaloo and meat or fish with characteristic local spices and coconut milk.
