6 most popular locations

The history of Grenada is spicy – Literally. On of the island’s major export is nutmeg, and many of the landmarks available for guest to visit are spice processing plants. Vistors will also find rum distilleries, historic forts, and a handfull of museums to visit. Below you can find the most visited attractions:

1. Gouyave: Gouyave is the center of the spice and mace industry in Grenada, making it the best location for visitors to learn how this spice is harvested. At the Gouyave Nutmeg Processing Cooperative, visitors can watch as worked shell, peel, and grind the nutmegs, then work towards turning them into spices, jellies, syrups, and more. Also in Gouyave is the Dougaldston Spice Estate, which offers tours of the engine room, and allows guests to view raw, unpackaged spices, and many historic artifacts that are located on the property.
2. Grenville: Athough Gouyave is the nutmeg capital of Grenada, the largest nutmeg processing facility is located in Grenville. Like its Gouyave counterpart, the Grenville Nutmeg Factory welcomes visitors to explore the grounds and watch as workers turn the nut into the spice. While in Grenville, don’t forget to stop at the local Fish Market, or the Produce Market on Saturdays.
3. St. Andrew Parish: In St. Andrew Parish, you can visit River Antoine Rum Distillery, the oldest rum distillery in the world. Tours of the distillery are available for free, and guide guests through the facility to view the old time brewing methods that are still in effect.
4. St. David’s: St. David’s is the location of another tourable rum distillery, the Westerhall Rum Distillery. Guests will marvel at the old-time practices used to make the rum, and will want to take note of the oldest working waterway in the Western Hemisphere.
5. St. Patrick: In 1651, Europeans intent on gaining control of Grenada battled heartily with the Carib Indians who inhabited the island. Rather than surrender to the French, many islanders decided to fling themselves off a 100-foot vertical cliff to their death. Today, this place is called Carib’s Leap, and a visitor’s center stands at the site to educate visitors on the history of Grenada’s colonization. Not far from Carib’s Leap is Belmont Estate, a 300-year-old working plantation that feels strongly about environmental protection. The property spans 400-acres and includes a restaurant, museum, cocoa fermentary, goat dairy, and craft cooperative.
6. Carriacou: If you have the opportunity to visit Grenada’s sister island of Carriacou, there are a few attractions you won’t want to miss. The Carriacou Museum in Hillsborough exhibits African, Amerindian, and European artifacts alongside locally produced watercolors. On the northern tip of Carriacou is a place called Gun Point, so named for the cannon that was placed their by the British in the 1780s. The cannon remains there to this day, and one of the island’s steepest hiking trails leads visitors to this attraction. Visitors interested in archeology will want to stop by the ruins of the first church on the island, Dover Ruins. The church’s early stonework is of particular interest. Some of the earliest wells built Carriacou are known for their interesting stone work; the Ningo Well and Amerindian Well are two notable wells.

Best way to discover the island: By bike or Scooter
Renting a bike or moped in Grenada allows you to enjoy the independence of traveling at your own pace without the hassle of driving a car up and down unfamiliar foreign roads. In addition to the perks of the wind in your hair and every route being scenic, rental costs for bikes and mopeds are considerably lower than car rental rates, especially when you compare deposits and gas prices. Renting road or mountain bikes can be a perfect way to exercise while observing Grenada’s many lush, green areas and beaches. Bikes are also a sufficient way to get to and from your destinations. Bikes and mopeds can be conveniently rented from your hotel or from one of the island’s rental car companies. Although biking is an inexpensive way to traverse the island, the geography of Grenada will see to it that your ride is a bit of a workout. The land on the island is hilly, and the roads are often narrow and steep, so cyclists should use caution and always be on the defensive when sharing roads with auto traffic. With the tropical island breeze at your back and gorgeous island scenery slowly passing by, cycles and motor scooters can be an enjoyable and inexpensive means of transportation while visiting the island of Grenada, but use caution when traveling the island’s winding roads.

Grenada Carnival
Grenada explodes in colour and noise at the ebullient Grenada Carnival, ‘Spicemas’. Grenadian starlets vie for the carnival crown and soca and calypso singers compete to be ‘monarch’. Multi-coloured ‘devils’ run wild and steel bands rock the island during J’ouvert. Young and Old come to enjoy Pan Jamboree, the Soca Quarterfinal, and Monday Night Mas in Greanada. The capital jumps to the sounds of steel bands and DJs as everyone enjoys a ‘Last Lap’ during the Parade of the Bands on the final day throughout St George’s. Cover yourself in bright body paint and join the thousands for a mighty fine Caribbean J’Ouvert.

Carriacou Carnival
Carnival celebrations in Carriacou are held from the weekend before the start of the Christian Lenten period. In the tradition of Caribbean Carnivals, these celebrations include calypso competitions and the parade of brightly costumed masqueraders through the streets of the main villages. Unique to Carriacou Carnival is the Shakespeare Mas, in which brightly dressed Peirrots engage in a battle of wits using only lines from Shakespearean plays. The competitor without a quick reply earns a playful stroke from his opponent’s stick. Carnival in Carriacou climaxes with two days of street parades and various competitions among calypsonians and masquerade bands. Although the Carnival entails many aspects of the main land’s Carnival, this event is quite spectacular in its very own unique way.
