Known as the Spice Island, Grenada offers visitors mountains, rainforest, waterfalls, white beaches, Big Drum dancing, rum distilleries and some of the most famous sailing regattas in the world. Updated throughout, this is still the only dedicated guide to Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique. Grenada's national parks are teaming with wildlife; Carriacou is home to some of the best coral reefs and wrecks in the Caribbean; and the tiny island of Petite Martinique is perfect for travellers looking for an idyllic getaway. Paul Crask showcases the islands' music festivals and cultural heritage, pinpoints ways to support local producers and craftsmen, and goes off the beaten track to reveal some of the country's little-known sights. An essential trip-planning tool, this guide will appeal to sun-seekers and sailors, as well as hikers, scuba divers and culture vultures.

TRAVEL & HOLIDAY GUIDES. The volcanic island of Grenada and the smaller Grenadines, Carriacou and Petite Martinique, sit at the southern tip of the Windward Islands chain in the eastern Caribbean. In 2004, they were decimated by Hurricane Ivan. The nutmeg trees on which the economy was once reliant were destroyed, and buildings and infrastructure collapsed. But now the islands have been rebuilt, renovated and improved. They are once more open for business, and enjoying a newfound prosperity as visitor numbers increase year on year. This guide takes hikers on treks through the rainforest, and divers to The Bianca C, the largest shipwreck in the Caribbean. It shows cultural visitors the nation's diverse heritage and rich musical traditions and leads those in need of a little lie-down to unspoilt beaches and secluded coves.
