Grenada has over 45 pristine white and black sandy beaches. The world renowned Grand Anse Beach is 3 miles of fine white sand in a calm sheltered bay and is located in the south-western side of the island, where most of the hotels are located.
Grand Anse is considered to be one of the loveliest beaches in the Caribbean. As the beach is on the western (leeward) side of the island, it is usually well sheltered and calm, and is a favourite with locals as well.
Grand Anse beach has a lot to offer, from water sports and scuba diving shops, to the vendors markets, many restaurants & hotels, small bars and beach chair rentals. So, if you are looking for a beach with attractions, then this is the one for you.
