Once known as the “Spice Isle” of the Caribbean, Grenada is historically famous for its production of nutmeg and was fought over by the French and British for nearly two centuries. Now an independent island nation, Grenada is still the “island of spice” with a rich culture of pageantry, poetry, dance, theatre and recreational activities.

Newlyweds love this romantic getaway for its tranquillity, natural beauty and fabulous beaches while many of the resorts specialize in wedding planning. The welcoming nature of the local people ensures that travellers will return to this island gem time after time.

The underwater scenery in Grenada is every bit as breath-taking as it is above the waves, and just as accessible. Most of the diving facilities in Grenada are located in the south of the island, and most of the dives sites are within 15 minutes of the Grand Anse Beach. The scuba diving in Grenada is some of the best in the Caribbean and boasts the largest shipwreck in this area, the 300 metre cruise ship Bianca C. Thriving coral reefs, steep walls, a sculpture park and even an underwater volcano make up the outstanding locations that Grenada has to offer.
