Things to do in Grenada are various for those who are wondering how to spend their vacation or holiday. With
white sand beaches, plentiful wildlife and cultural experiences to enjoy, Grenada is a very popular island of the
West Indies for travelers. Here are some ideas of how to spend your time there:
1. Snorkeling & Beach
The white sand beaches are certainly very beautiful, not to mention the warm Caribbean Sea. There are several spots
where the best snorkeling can be done. For example, Sandy Island is just a short boat journey away from the north
coast of Grenada. Ideal for enjoying colourful tropical fish. Not far from Sandy Island is Carriacou, where some of
the best snorkeling and diving can be had. Surrounded by reefs, fish and sealife are certainly teeming.
Sergeant Majors are abundant in Flamingo Bay. If you take some bread along with you, you can even experience them
intimately!
2. Food
An island like Grenada has a lot of interesting eating opportunities for the newcomer. For example, with cocoa pods
growing on island, a trip to the Chocolate Factory is a must. Learn what the process is and then even make a
purchase from the store.
Gouyave's Fish Friday is a weekly cultural event that cannot be missed. Mix with the local people as you enjoy the
barbecued succulent fresh catch whilst listening to some popular tunes.
St George's market is jam packed full of locally grown fruit, vegetables and spices. Certainly worth a visit to
experience the hustle, bustle and colour.
3. Wildlife
With wildlife ranging from monkeys to the 178 different types of hummingbirds on island, there is something for
everybody. Levera Beach is a destination for leatherback turtles during March to August. The best time to visit is
May to June. Use a local guide for the best sightings.
