Grand Anse Beach, Grenada

To get a feel for the Island, you need not venture further than Grand Anse - a prime Grenada attraction. It is the main tourist area filled with resorts, hotels, restaurant, pubs and entertainment venues.

The setting is perfect, with azure blue water, white sandy beaches and green hills in the background. Rent a lounger and an umbrella and set yourself up for the day. Vendors walk around selling exotic cocktails and local snacks. When you get hot, take a dip in the cool water or if you enjoy snorkwling, this is the place to see the amazing underwater marine life. Take a stroll through the local market stalls with their smell of spices and buy some local hand-made crafts. Then relax and watch the sun set, is does not get better than this!

Sandy Island, Grenada

Sandy Island Beach is the perfect way to spend the day when you want to relax and spend sometime in the calm blue waters of the Caribbean Sea. Located on the island of Carriacou which is situated off the southwest coastline of Grenada, Sandy Island Beach has a wonderful natural atmosphere for you to enjoy. After Hurricane Ivan in 2004, this Grenada beach was set aside as a nature and marine preserve. The beautiful white sand Sandy Island Beach has a different shape than most beaches as it protrudes outward from the island into the multi-colored Caribbean Sea. You will enjoy swimming and snorkeling amidst the numerous coral reef and sea grass beds which are protected just offshore. You can find some shade under a coconut tree or you can relish the warmth of the sun while visiting Sandy Island Beach. There are no services on this Grenada beach, so come prepared.
