GRENADA IN A NUTSHELL
The fragrant scents of nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and ginger rarely leave you in this sleepy ‘Spice Island of the Caribbean’. With a handful of excellent hotels and restaurants which ooze with charm, Grenada is wonderfully laid-back and the perfect setting for some serious battery re-charging! The palm-fringed beaches are glorious but so too is the backdrop of lush rainforests, waterfalls, plantations, lakes and one of the region's prettiest harbours, St George's. Grenada really is one of the most diverse of the Caribbean islands. Dance to local Calypso bands on Bathway Beach on a public holiday (the beach is otherwise fabulously deserted); or take the hydrofoil across to the sister island of Carriacou for some scuba-diving or snorkelling.
CARIBTOURS' PERSONAL VIEW
Many of us have enjoyed the odd evening simply "liming" (hanging out Grenada style) at The Nutmeg on The Carenage. Fiona was especially taken with the Grand Etang National Park and Forest Reserve: "It's a taste of unspoiled tropical beauty – and I like the fact you can choose to explore at your own pace – with strenuous hikes or gentle walks to choose from".
DID YOU KNOW...?
"Black gold" in Grenada refers to nutmeg which grows prolifically throughout the island – Grenada is the second largest producer of nutmeg in the world.
This is an ideal beach resort in which to relax whilst also rejuvenating the body and soul with a host of excellent sporting activities and spa treatments available from the hotel and its superb beach.
It’s a popular choice for honeymooners but is also ideal for friends and family travelling together and single travellers too.
LaSource has become one of our most popular resorts with exceptionally high client satisfaction levels.
