Grenada isn’t an island as many people presuppose, but in fact it is a three island state consisting of Grenada, Carriacou, and petite Martinique. It is an ideal destination for a Caribbean Vacation with Grenada itself being the largest of the three islands by some margin. Grenada is twenty one miles long and twelve miles wide, with a total area of 133 square miles, so it isn’t so big as you can get lost, nor too small to discover all its secrets too quickly.
Grenada is an excellent place for people who love diving in the Caribbean as well as many other traditional vacation activities such as exploring the beauty of traditional Caribbean cities like St. George and the many excellent beaches of Carriacou. You can also visit the volcanic cone of Petite Martinique of the sandy beaches of St. David. Visitors can also enjoy bird watching, kayaking and hiking through the diverse natural sanctuaries and wildlife preserves of this Caribbean paradise.

A southern Caribbean cruise has a charisma all to its own. Travelers to this region will find that these ports retain their rich heritage and cultures, and are less developed and remain unchanged. This region boasts some of the most spectacular places in the Caribbean. The distance of these islands from the U.S. mainland and cruise ports, make this area ideal for cruises with a lengthier voyage.
