Leaving ‘town’ (said by many to be the prettiest capital in the Caribbean), we drive past the stadium (cricket world cup 2007!) and up the picturesque west coast, rich in history and colour.
Our first stop is Concord Waterfall, a 2 km drive up a leafy lane beside a stream, dotted with Grenadian agriculture: nutmeg, bananas, cocoa, and many other plants of interest.The nutmeg 'pool' in Gouyave is our next stop: you are shown the seasoning, processing and sorting of nutmegs and mace. Nutmeg products vary from syrup to massage oil, garden mulch to nail varnish; even a pain-relieving spray.
We continue northward to a magnificent view of Grenada's Grenadine islands, and of the place where the last fighting Caribs committed suicide in 1651, overwhelmed by the prospect of French rule.
By now, you're ready for lunch. Our regular venue is still being rebuilt after Ivan blew it away: we may take you to Helena’s or to Helvellyn, depending on group size. Either way, we look forward to the food ourselves. It is ‘local’, Grenadian, but not over-‘adventurous’!
We next take you to River Antoine Rum Distillery: the place is as antique (1785) as the rum is strong (75% alcohol- that’s why we have lunch first) On through La Poterie and Tivoli, then through Pearls Airport, disused since the Americans ‘intervened’ in 1983. Today, sheep graze under two old Soviet planes.After driving through Grenville, Grenada’s second biggest town, we go up to the Grand Etang crater lake in the rainforest area. Spices can be bought at Concord waterfall and at the nutmeg ‘factory’.
