• Grand Étang National Park Nestled within an ancient volcanic crater, Grand Étang National Park features a 300-m-deep lake ringed by montane rainforest. Trails wind through mahogany and fern-clad slopes where purple-faced monkeys and agoutis forage beneath towering trees. Birdwatchers spot hummingbirds and owls among bromeliads. Guided hikes include geology talks on the crater’s formation and cultural lore of Maroon communities who once sought refuge here. The park’s edible fruits—breadfruit and guava—line paths, and rustic cabins near the shore allow overnight stays under star-filled skies, accompanied by frogs and crickets in the tropical night chorus.

• Prospect Plantation At Prospect Plantation, visitors explore 18 hectares of organic nutmeg, cocoa and banana groves on a former sugar estate. Tours showcase traditional spice-cleaning mills powered by waterfalls, where mace, cinnamon and allspice are processed by hand. A botanical walk leads to a freshwater pool ideal for cooling off, while a chef-led cooking demo uses farm-fresh produce to prepare oil down and spice-infused sauces. The vintage Great House, restored to colonial elegance, houses a café serving homemade cake and coffee grown on the slopes. On-site spa treatments employ essential oils distilled from local spices.

• Annandale Falls Just a 10-minute drive from St. George’s, Annandale Falls cascades 15 meters into a jade pool surrounded by tropical blooms. A paved path and viewing platform offer easy access for families. Local vendors sell grilled corn and coconut water at the entrance, while picnic tables beneath giant mahogany trees invite relaxation. For the adventurous, cliff-jump points and rope swings provide thrills. Guides explain medicinal uses of guava leaves and noni berries growing along the banks. Weekly yoga sessions by the waterfall combine the sound of rushing water with gentle stretches in the open air.

• Grand Anse Beach Voted among the Caribbean’s finest, Grand Anse Beach stretches 2 km of golden sand lapped by clear, warm waters. Beach chairs and umbrellas line the shore in front of boutique resorts, while local vendors sell jerk chicken and rum punch. Snorkelers explore shallow reef patches teeming with parrotfish and sea urchins. Sunset catamaran cruises depart daily, offering panoramic views of the isthmus connecting Grenada to Petite Martinique. Evening drum circles on the sand invite visitors to join in calypso rhythms under swaying palms, with fire dancers adding dazzling flair.

• Underwater Sculpture Park Created by British sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor, this pioneering marine park features 80 life-sized statues on the seabed at 8–12 m depth. Over time, coral and sponges colonize the concrete figures, fostering artificial reef growth. Guided snorkeling and dive tours highlight the interplay of art and ecology—sculptures of families, children and mythical creatures appear enveloped by schools of fish. Environmental briefings explain how the park reduces pressure on natural reefs. Underwater photography workshops team up with marine biologists to document reef regeneration and species diversity over seasons.

• Levera National Park On Grenada’s northeastern tip, Levera National Park protects mangrove lagoons, sandy spits and sea turtle nesting sites. Birders track rare frigatebirds and herons among grey mangroves, while boat tours reveal leatherback turtles nesting offshore (May–September). A coastal trail along the cliff offers sweeping views of Carriacou and Petite Martinique at dawn. Guided nature walks emphasize dune stabilization and local folklore of mermaids said to haunt the rocky shoreline. Nearby ruins of an 18th-century sugar windmill attest to the island’s plantation past.

• Concord Falls Hidden in a rainforest gorge near Victoria, Concord Falls features three tiers cascading into emerald pools perfect for swimming. A 45-minute hike crosses wooden bridges and slippery roots—guides provide walking sticks and point out medicinal plants. At the top tier, a natural rock slide sends thrill-seekers into the plunge pool below. Families picnic on flat stones under a canopy of bamboo and almond trees. Conservation volunteers patrol the area, educating visitors on river cleanliness and the critically endangered Grenada dove found in nearby woodlands.

• River Antoine Rum Distillery Established in 1785, River Antoine is the Caribbean’s oldest functioning water-powered rum distillery. Visitors watch the original millstones crush sugar cane, then see fermentation vats and a wooden pot still in action. Unfiltered distillate flows directly into bottles for the potent “one-pot” rum—overproof and richly flavored. A small museum displays antique tools and explains estate life during colonial plantation era. Tasting sessions pair dark rum with local bitters and fresh lime. Souvenir bottles hand-sealed by staff bear the distillery’s iconic horse-powered wheel logo.
