A Quick Dip Into St. George’s on Grenada

After a less successful visit to the beach at Morne Rouge Bay, I decided to stroll around St. George’s, before I had to board the cruise ship again. This turned out to be a better spent time than at the sandy waterfront. Walking the streets of this small capital was actually very freeing. I could might as well have been wearing Harry Potter’s Cloak of Invisibility. Never have I ever felt so overlooked. And that’s a good thing in my book 🙂 It was not a tourist trap, it was not laid-back – it was buzzing with busy, local everyday life. On top of that, it looks beautiful! Loved it! When I got back to the cruise terminal area, at the Esplanade, with a myriad of stalls, the tourist trap feeling crept in…

PS! I did not venture through the Sendall Tunnel, which takes you to the other side of town, to the inner harbour area, to the Carnage.

Grenada was a port on my cruise with Celebrity Cruises.

  1. I could walk around this down for days. It became a little routine, every time I’d take the bus into St. Georges, I’d have the driver drop me off on the outskirts of town and I’d find different streets to walk going towards my destination in town. So much interesting architecture and nice people!

  2. I love Grenada! I have just included it in my top five family-friendly Caribbean islands actually because it is so friendly. Grande Anse Beach is stunning, it is a shame you were not impressed with the beach you visited. #MondayEscapes

    1. The problem might be I’ve seen too many beaches, so these days it has to be an excellent one to impress me… Or maybe I just wasn’t in the mood for a beach day 🙂

Love to hear your comment :)
