Grenada-- the province of honeymooners and those looking for a real escape, Grenada is a lush and lovely sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This nation, composed of a trio of tiny islands, is at the edge of the Caribbean chain... but you might think you've found a heavenly edge of the earth.
One of Grenada's most enticing features is her beaches. Nestled amongst sea grape trees and stilt-like palms, powdered sugar sands are edged with alluringly blue waters. Some sandy stretches are deserted while some are punctuated by laidback bars and restaurants. Companion island Carriacou is ringed with stunning shores and Petit Martinique offers some very secluded, very romantic spots.
If you want a break from lolling about on the beach, take a leisurely stroll on the streets of charming seaside St. George-- considered by many to be one of the most picturesque towns in the Caribbean. Crisp white-washed, red-tile roofed buildings are sandwiched between the blue of the sea below and the green of the hillside above.
And there's nature-- a cornucopia of sights. From majestic waterfalls to dense tropical forests speckled with exotic winged beauties, Grenada is home to an amazing abundance and diversity of habitats, teeming with fascinating flora and fauna.
If you're looking for flashy casinos and a thumping nightlife, head elsewhere-- Grenada is the place to retreat and relax.
