Underwater Sculptures

Reviewed By JohnV802 - Hamilton, Canada

Unique experience, would be better for scuba divers but still neat to see. Lots of interesting sculptures. Tour was with Dive Grenada who picked us up at resort, provided good snorkeling equipment, comfortable boat ride out, and guidance around sculptures.

Reviewed By FClin - Aberdeen, United Kingdom

Although smaller than we had expected, this cafe/shop/chocolate story venue is a really nice place to escape to,away from crowds/heat/chaos on a busy Saturday. There was free WiFi,a toilet and a variety of souvenirs on sale. The cafe served a variety of tempting treats and the chocolate brownie was to die for !

Grenada National Museum

Small history museum with galleries on Grenada's Kalinago inhabitants; European influence from the 15th century; and modern history such as, the sinking of Italian cruise ship 'The Bianca C' in 1961, Grenada independence in 1974 and the 1979 Revolution. Displays include collections of Amerindian pottery, canons, from the British/French battles for the island, coppers used during the slave era to process sugarcane, and a mix of objects reflecting the colonial period of the 17th and 18th century.

Reviewed By TravisTripper - Austin, United States

This museum has exhibits from both the Amerindian and colonial periods. What I liked best was the press exhibit upstairs, which has copies of local newspapers from the time of the coup and the US invasion in 1983. It was good to get some local perspective on that whole thing.
