THE
ISLAND'S TEN MOST
ROMANTIC SPOTS
-
One of the most romantic locales on the island is world-famous
Grand Anse Beach. It's a two-mile stretch of glorious,
golden sand lapped by tranquil aquamarine waters.
-
Take your loved one on a picnic overlooking Annandale
or Concord Falls and enjoy a leisurely repast to the sound
of crystal clear water cascading into jewel-like pools
where the swimming is heavenly.
- Come
on in, the snorkeling and diving is fine in the narrow
strip of sea that separates Grenada's two sister islands
-- Carriacou and Petit Martinique.
-
Everyone's a newfound friend for couples who visit the
Saturday morning market in Market Square. It's the center
of civic and social life in the capital city and on Saturday
mornings vendors stalls line the streets.
-
Leave the bustle of Market Square behind by strolling
down Granby Street to the Esplanade, which offers a panoramic
view of the Caribbean that is especially romantic at sunset.
-
Mt. Carmel Waterfall is the highest of the island's waterfalls.
It is actually two different falls over which water tumbles
more than 70 feet into the pools below. It's a sight worthy
of being shared by two.
-
To ensure a long and happy future together, newlyweds
mustn't overlook a visit to River Sallee boiling springs,
about one and a half miles north of Lake Antoine. Noted
for their unique volcanic geololgy, the springs are also
a natural wishing well.
- Another
favorite stop for honeymooners is Carib's Leap. Located
directly north of the town of Sauteurs, it is a steep
cliff face that descends vertically some 100 feet into
the sea. It was from the top of the cliff that Grenada's
last remaining Carib Indians hurled themselves in 1651,
preferring suicide to domination by the French.
-
In Grenada's Central Range, the volcanic mountain peaks
rise to more than 2,000 feet. Here, the most beautiful
spot of all is Grand Etang. It is a crater lake 1,700
feet above sea level. Surrounded by the island's most
pristine rainforest, the steamy ambiance is sure to ignite
the fires of love.
-
Hit the beach and laze in the sun at Levera National Park,
a coastal area acclaimed for the natural beauty of its
golden beach, coral reefs, beds of sea grass and abundant
marine life.
