Grenada Holidays
Sleepy Grenada is a tranquil, off-the-beaten-track alternative to the region’s bigger islands.
This is an island full of flavour, character and traditional Caribbean charm. Known as the Spice Island, Grenada is cloaked with plantations, dense tropical forests and wears its past on its sleeve for all to see. And the beaches are pretty beautiful too: Grand Anse makes it on to plenty of world’s best beaches lists. A visit to the exotic and flavour-filled Grenada gives you a taste of the authentic Caribbean. It’s a wonderfully underdeveloped island dotted with chocolate factories, spice plantations and skimmed by award-winning stretches of sand.
Discover two sides to the island with a stay on the sun-kissed south coast where you’ll find hotels that are something of a Grenada institution and a visit to the wilder north coast where rustic boutique properties seem to cling to the forest-cloaked hillside and are surrounded by little more than local villages. Alternatively, you can easily add a stop in Grenada with some time in Barbados or Saint Lucia or a stop-over in New York or Miami.

Grenada Rainforest Walk
Grenada’s verdant interior is a natural wonderland of tropical fauna and flora. The Grand Etang Rainforest is your destination and you’ll spend a few hours out exploring the walkways and waterfalls. First up is the information centre where you can get a taster of what you may see; then you’ll head to the Grand Etang Lake, a crater lake 530 metres above sea level that is home to brightly coloured freshwater fish. There’ll be a short walk along the rainforest trails in the company of a knowledgeable guide who will point out interesting plants and animals along the way. On the way back to your hotel, you will stop of at the Annandale Waterfall where you can take some time to relax by the water or even take a quick dip in the pool below the falls.
• Duration: half day

Good to know
Wear comfortable clothes and shoes for walking and pack swimming kit if you intend to take a dip at the waterfall.
Spices of Grenada
When on the Spice Isle, there’s no excuse for not discovering more about the island’s most famous exports. You’ll see two sides to Grenada’s food industry: first, there’s the modern De La Grenade Industries, an award-winning food producer where you can try a variety of products made from locally grown nutmeg; then there are Gemma’s Home Garden, a charming private garden set on a steep hillside where flowers, fruits and trees grow, and an aromatic herb and spice garden. Then it’s back to the coast for a visit to a once royally owned estate, La Sagesse Nature Centre, where you’ll sit down to a refreshing afternoon tea.

Grenada Sunset Cruise
There’s nothing quite like making you way sedately along the coast (under sail if conditions allow) with a sparkling drink in hand and a beautiful Caribbean sunset as your backdrop.

Discover Carriacou
Grenada sits at the southern end of a string of islands known as the Grenadines. This glorious archipelago is known for its beaches, warm seas and historic ruins. Board the Osprey Lines ferry which will whisk you to beautiful Carriacou, a laid-back isle known as the ‘island of reefs’, in 90 minutes. Following your arrival, you’ll head out on an introductory island tour and sit down for lunch at a local restaurant. Then there’s a bit of time for some sun, sea and sand at one of the Carriacou’s famous beaches before you return to Grenada by ferry.

Where is Grenada?
Located at most southerly end of the Windward Islands, the island of Grenada is the epitome of a paradisiacal Caribbean island. The islands of St Vincent & the Grenadines lie to the northeast and the northern reaches of South America are 94 miles away. Barbados and Saint Lucia – the islands you would most likely twin with Grenada, are under an hour away by air.
Beaches
Of Grenada’s 45 beaches, Grand Anse is the most celebrated. With a two-mile sweeping stretch of powder-soft sand that’s lapped by inviting waters, it isn’t hard to see why. Backed by informal restaurants, bars and luxuriously relaxed resorts that are built no higher than the palm trees that line the sand, Grand Anse is the perfect destination for a fabulous beach retreat. Just beyond the headland at the southern end of Grand Anse is the serene and less-frequented Morne Rouge Bay; beyond here, there's Magazine Beach and Pink Gin Beach.
St George's
In St George’s, the nation’s capital, both colonial British and colourful Caribbean buildings line narrow streets that rise up steeply from the natural horseshoe harbour to create one of the Caribbean’s most picturesque cities. Each Saturday morning St George’s vibrant market livens up the sleepy city with the bustle of local farmers selling fruit, vegetables and the island’s famous spices. Admire the beautiful city and its harbour from a different perspective while discovering a slice of the island’s history at the 18th-Century Fort George.
Grand Etang National Park
High up in the verdant mountains of the island’s interior is the Great Etang National Park which boasts landscapes that are so beautiful they are sure to tempt you away from the wonderful beaches for at least one day. Traversing the park on foot visitors will spot a wide variety of flora and possibly Mona monkeys, possums, armadillos, lizards and an array of tropical birds.
Northern Grenada
The northern reaches of the island seem like a world away from the busier south coast. This is where you'll want to head to embrace authentic Grenadian life. The accommodation is slightly more rustic up here but the views, off-the-beaten track vibe and feeling on being at one with nature are all well worth the winding journey. Just off the coast, there are a cluster of tiny uninhabited islets that you can visit, and the southern-most islands of the Grenadines, including beautiful Carriacou, can be reached in approximately an hour and a half.
Cuisine
Grenada is famous for more than just spices and you will catch a distinct scent of nutmeg and cinnamon in the air. The cuisine you will sample on the island will only further stimulate your senses. For a festival of flavours, try the national dish, oildown. This stew of meat, bread, fruit, vegetables and dumplings is steamed in coconut milk until all the liquid has been absorbed. There’s also a wealth of interesting fruits to try as you relax by the ocean, including breadfruit, callalou and plantain.
Best time to visit Grenada
Grenada is a fabulous place. Not only does it have white-sand beaches and turquoise bays, but it also has rainforest hikes, nutmeg plantations, and colourful villages. To make the most of it all, it’s helpful to know that the weather doesn’t swing wildly, but there are two broad seasons to keep in mind. January to May tends to be drier and less humid. From June to December, rain becomes more regular, especially in the afternoons. While hurricane season peaks between August and October, Grenada lies on the southern edge of the hurricane belt, so direct hits are rare, though not impossible.

Grenada Weather by Month
January in Grenada
The year starts gently. January brings warm days, blue skies, and a breeze that keeps things feeling comfortable. You can expect daytime temperatures around 29 degrees and evenings that don’t call for more than something light and summery. It’s a good month for walking the coastal trails, exploring the market in St George’s, or just floating in the sea. Waterfalls are still flowing nicely after the wetter months, and everything feels refreshed.
February in Grenada
February behaves much like January but with a little more sunshine and even less rain. It’s one of the driest months, so you can wander, snorkel, or sit outside all day without thinking too hard about the forecast. Inland areas stay green and breezy, while the beaches are calm and ideal for swimming. If you’re keen to see a bit more of the island, this is a good time for day trips without the heat slowing you down too much.
March in Grenada
The middle of the dry season and often the month with the steadiest weather. Skies are clear, sea conditions are smooth, and the hills still have a good amount of green. If you’re keen on diving or snorkelling, visibility is usually excellent now, and the water is warm enough to stay in as long as you like. It’s also a good time for hiking through Grand Etang on a rainforest walk or visiting a local spice grower, when the heat isn’t too overwhelming.
April in Grenada
It’s dry, but you might notice the air getting a little heavier as the island starts edging toward the rainy season. Temperatures are warm, usually just over 30 degrees during the day, and the sea is at its best. The hills are starting to lightly sun-scorch, but the beaches are wide open and lovely, and you can still count on plenty of sun.
May in Grenada
A shift in pace begins in May. Rain becomes a bit more common, especially in the late afternoon, but there’s still plenty of sun. It’s a quieter time on the island, and the heat picks up slightly, with days nudging 31 degrees. The rain helps everything green up again, and the waterfalls start to grow louder.
June in Grenada
The wet season begins to settle in properly, though it’s rarely dramatic. Most showers come in the afternoon or overnight, leaving mornings clear and calm. The island’s greenery kicks back into gear, and you’ll see fruit stands bursting with mangoes and avocados. It’s still warm and bright, but the air feels heavier. The sea stays inviting, and if you're up early, it’s a lovely time for walks before the heat builds.
July in Grenada
This is a month for early starts and slow afternoons. July brings more rain, more humidity, and fewer visitors, but the island is full of colour and movement. Markets are busy with summer produce, gardens are overflowing, and the rainforest looks like it’s had a good drink. It’s still easy to get around, and if you don’t mind the occasional downpour, it’s a great time to explore the interior.
August in Grenada
Rain is more regular now, and the heat sticks around, with plenty of humidity in the mix. Some days bring short showers, others more of a dramatic soak, but there’s always a bright patch not far behind. This is the month when everything is fully green, and the scent of spices seems to hang heavier in the air. It’s a slower time, and while there’s a risk of a tropical storm, many days are simply warm and breezy with a quick rinse mid-afternoon.
September in Grenada
This is the quietest time of year on the island. Some small guesthouses take a break, and the weather can be unpredictable, with occasional stormy spells. But it’s not without its charm. The beaches are peaceful, the rainforest is vivid, and you’ll often have popular spots to yourself. If you’re happy to dodge showers and take the days as they come, September offers a quieter kind of escape.
October in Grenada
Still part of the quiet, rainy stretch, but with a few more dry spells starting to appear, especially later in the month. The air is thick and warm, the hills are thriving, and it’s a good time to head inland where the waterfalls are properly full. There’s a sense of calm on the island, and while you’ll likely get rained on at least once a day, the sun usually finds its way back out.
November in Grenada
Things begin to balance out again. Rain starts to ease up, particularly in the second half of the month, and there’s a bit more blue sky to go around. The sea stays warm, and the beaches begin to see a few more footprints. It’s still green and fragrant from months of rain, but you can start to feel the dry season building momentum.
December in Grenada
December often brings the return of clear mornings, calmer seas, and that clean, just-after-the-rain feeling. The island feels freshly washed, and there’s an easygoing energy in the air as the festive season approaches. Temperatures are around 29 degrees during the day, and the evenings are perfect for a drink outside without a jumper.
