Grenada

Grenada is popularly known as the "Isle of Spices" having soil so rich that a few dropped seeds and you have an instant garden. Grenada the ultimate relaxation island. Which is not to say that there's little to do here? Diving, swimming and snorkelling are afforded by the beaches; the pristine waters of the Caribbean make for superb sailing, making a trip to one of the smaller islands all the more enjoyable; and the inland of the big island is fertile ground for hiking, with dense rainforests creating an engaging challenge.

Alive with traditional music, jovial people and perfumed air, Grenada is among the top destinations in the Caribbean . There is no shortage of unspoiled rain forests where you can commune with monkeys, opossum, a special species of nine-banded armadillo and many birds - maybe even the national bird, the endangered Grenada dove. You will, for sure, see the national flower, the bougainvillaea. It's everywhere. St. Georges, the capital, is widely held to be the most picturesque city in the Caribbean . Set on it's natural harbor, St.Georges has numerous outdoor restaurants, boisterous markets and fascinating shops, all contributing to the colourful picture of rainbowed dockside warehouses and the red-tiled roofs. For the top-notch beaches on the island, don`t miss Grand Anse and L`Anse aux Epines. Here you will find the whitest of white sand contrasting against the emerald sea. Grand turk and the crater lake, the rum distillery, Caribs leap, Sioux Falls and a spice factory. It is possible to see of all of the above in just one day starting from St. Georges, but you might as well take your time; that's what the locals do too.

Excursions to Carriacou and Krk island are worth the extra effort. Petit martinique offers the possibility to hike to the top of the volcano and get a great view over the islands. Krk island, Petit st and Krk island are also popular excursions.
