I cannot stand being on a crowded boat. I do not dive frequently and I would like to have the attention and watchful eye of the dive master. Dive Grenada is first rate with safety, comfort and enjoyment. This is boutique diving. The owner, Phil, a Brit, has a lifetime of experience and will make sure you have a safe and enjoyable diving experience. They take a maximum of 6 divers. Our dive master was excellent. Very knowledgeable and he pointed out so many interesting creatures that we would have never spotted. He also made sure that we were ok and helped with any difficulties. My difficulty is getting back on board. This was made easy for me as the captain assisted me and the ladder was also easier getting up, as it had a less acute incline. My daughter and I did 4 dives. I particularly enjoyed a wreck dive.
Diving with Dive Grenada was one of my favorite diving experiences. I highly recommend using them. As they only take a few people on any dive, I suggest booking well in advance.

An amazing variety of plants in a beautiful setting, and home to red foot tortoises, water turtles and birds

Reviewed By Chesterwelshman_11 - Chester, United Kingdom

We decided to visit a garden as part of our recent holiday in Grenada and the hotel recommended Palm Tree Gardens, what a treat!! Laurence is a wonderful, knowledgable gardener and his easy manner and passion made this a visit not to forget. The array of trees, shrubs and beautiful orchids were quite simply breath taking. Thankyou for sharing your garden with us.

House of Chocolate

House of Chocolate is a very unique and beautiful hand crafted mini-museum-boutique, chocolateria-cafe portraying the history of chocolate in the world and Grenada. Specialize on local organic chocolate.

Reviewed By Patrick G - Virginia Beach, Virginia

There's a lot packed into this little store. Just after the entrance is a history of cocoa cultivation on the island including pictures and original equipment. There is, of course, a whole range of chocolate and spice items for sale, along with samples of the various chocolates to try. There is a little treat counter in the back with chocolate and spice flavored desserts, drinks and ice cream - fantastic! Most of all, you are bathed in the smell of cocoa as soon as you walk in; it is quite intoxicating, even for a non-chocoholic like me. Well worth a quick visit.

Grand Anse Beach

Long, lovely sweep of white sand fronted by turquoise blue water and backed by hills.

Reviewed By Ronald L - Longmont, United States

Off our cruise ship and caught a water taxi just north of the pier. Cost $10-US pp for round trip. Took about 20 minutes to run to Grand Anse Beach. One of the longest white sand Beaches on Grenada. Could have also taken the local bus with a grey circle on the wind
shield with the #1 inside. This costs 2.50 EC or $1-US pp one way and they run frequently. Taxis also will get you there and back at a more substantial cost. Lounge chairs and umbrellas available for a fee. Very nice beach.

Native Spirit Scuba

Reviewed By Khadine_C29 - Trinidad

Very accomdating, booked a trip out to the marine park at flamingo bay and the sculpture park with them ($55usd per person). Comfortable ride on tge boat, small groups and they give you enough time to explore in an unhurried atmosphere. At the sculpture park my sister was having a bit anxiety and one of the guides put her in the life ring and pulled her along while he swam so that she wouldn't miss seeing the sculptures. The guides were knowledgeable of the sites and history of the sculptures as well as the types of marine life. Overall a great experience and would gighly recommend them for the tours. Also they are located comfortably on grand anse beach.

Underwater Sculptures

Reviewed By daltonblue - Dalton-in-Furness, United Kingdom

We have recently visited the sculptures by means of a kayak trip with SNS kayaks. I cant seem to find them on facebook but this is a great and inexpensive way to see the fish and sculptures, although it is an energetic way of doing it , especially when the wind gets up.
You are guided by staff in a seperate canoebut still kept informed. The owner of the business travels alongside in a dinghy taking photographs , which fpr $10 he will supply a dvd of the day.
There is also rum bunch, coconut and bananas on your return.
A great way to spend a Sunday morning.

Carenage

Busy harbor in St. George.

Reviewed By KTRWAnderson - Sudbury, Canada

The Carenage is essentially a street that goes around a horseshoe shaped harbour in St. Georges. It is surrounded by colourful houses which are built on the hills. It is absolutely stunning and picturesque. Surprisingly, the water in the harbour is very clear and there are many ocean creatures to be seen from a stroll around the harbour. For example, there are many sergeant majors, butterfly fish, anemones, crabs, gars, etc. There are local fishing boats docked around the harbours edge with fishermen getting ready to tackle a days work. There are many locals in the area going about their daily business. There are many businesses located around the harbour, but there were not many vendors there as they generally stayed on the other side of Fort Georges. Even though the area is busy with cars and pedestrians, it is a very beautiful location and well worth a visit. If your driving to the area, I'd suggest parking and walking around the area. If you have a child with you, you should bring a stroller or ensure that you hold their hands tightly as there are no railings around the waters edge and none between the sidewalks and the street.

Laura's Herb & Spice Garden

Reviewed By GeneG547 - Detroit, Michigan

Stopped here as part of a cruise excursion (RCCL Spices and Sunshine). If you're into learning bout herbal medicines and natural ways to heal oneself this is the place to be. Laura's has dozens of plants from small to trees showing all the things grown on the island. While walking the grounds the guide tells you what each herb is used for and lets you smell each one and even taste a cocoa bean right from the tree. A very interesting and educational visit.
