buildings of St George's, Grenada's capital, line a

Fort Frederick. On Carriacou, the biggest town to explore on your Grenada
holidays is Hillsborough, with colourful wooden houses spilling down to the
pier and main beach.
Outdoor holidays in Grenada
Holiday in Grenada and soak up the sun along the broad sweep of white sands on
Grand Anse Beach. Hike through the rainforest on your holidays,
criss-crossing Grenada's Grand Etang National Park. Then do a

Bianca C liner that sank in the 1960s.
Foodie holidays in Grenada
Try the West Indian favourite oil down (meat and vegetables in coconut milk)
on holiday in Grenada at restaurants in St George's. You'll

favourite on holidays in Grenada, served at roadside stalls on all the islands. Wash
it down with a locally brewed Carib beer on your Grenada holidays.
