Two miles of pristine white sands await at Grand Anse Beach. Grenada’s most beloved beach is known internationally for its breathtaking Caribbean views and availability of watersports, though lovebirds flock to the beach for the most relaxing experience of their lives.

Grand Anse Beach is a lovely spot with unlimited Caribbean pleasures, though the country has an array of romantic activities that will make for an unforgettable honeymoon.

  • Grenada’s main island offers more than enough natural marvels and excitement for an entire honeymoon, though a trip to Carriacou or Petite Martinique is the best way to enhance your experience! Carriacou is home to gorgeous beaches like Anse La Roche, Tyrrel Bay Beach, and Paradise Beach, while Petite Martinique is known for its 750-foot Piton peak, the captivating Darant Bay Cave, and plenty of cherished beaches of its own.
  • There’s nothing quite like a Grenadian sunset, and the Lover’s Rock Sunset Catamaran Cruise out of St. George’s is an unmissable romantic excursion. As the sky above the turquoise Caribbean bursts with rich oranges, reds, and pinks, you and your sweetheart will be treated to a scene you’ll forever treasure.
  • With 75 sculptures to discover in a single scuba-diving excursion, the Grenada Underwater Sculpture Park in The Lime is a must for adventurous couples. The sculptures look ancient, but they’re actually part of an art project completed in 2006! Many of the sculptures are only submerged around 15 feet below the surface, so they’re accessible to snorkelers and beginner scuba divers alike.

Grenadian Culture & Considerations

Grenadian Culture & Considerations

Language
The official language of Grenada is English, so no preparation is required for English speakers. Grenadian Creole French (patois) is spoken in a few select rural areas, though the main dialect is Grenadian Creole English. You might hear locals talk about “liming around” in reference to relaxing activities, “drivay” for “drive,” and “allyuh” for “all of you.” Locals tend to call their country “Greens,” but be sure to pronounce it “Greh-nay-da” if you’re using the full name!

Safety
As Grenada ranks among the safest Caribbean countries, only the most basic travel precautions should be considered. Simple steps like locking up your valuables at your resort and being aware of your surroundings are really the only things to be mindful of. Grenada is a Caribbean oasis in just about every regard!

Tipping
Most Grenadian restaurants and hotels will add a service charge of 10-18% to bills, with additional tipping being entirely discretionary. Tipping is quite common for services, including at resorts, so be sure to consider tips for butlers, bartenders, and assorted staff to ensure that your service is the best of the best!

Grenada’s overwhelming natural beauty and terrific amenities are designed for reveling in a new marriage. From the astonishing sunsets to the boundless couples activities, romance is simply effortless on the country’s islands. Your only regret will be not staying longer!
