#The Best Grenada Adventure Ever #Must See #You Won't Be Sorry #Truly Paradise #A Whole New World #Water so Clear I can see Boat Shawdows #Mom, Can you Believe I swam with turtles!?! For two years, I've participated in many island tours and activities organized by the Significant Others Organization of Saint George's University. I felt like I pretty much nailed all major tourist attractions, but with precious time running out in the beautiful Caribbean, I was eager to engage in one more big adventure. I immediately thought about some raves written by another SO, Kelsey Coghill, about Tobago Cays and all I can remember is her phrase, "Seriously, go tomorrow." If you know Kelsey, you'd know about her extensive knowledge and experience with Grenada. Taking credible "Miss Grenada's" word for it, I started conjuring up a game plan. Along with my partners in crime Yunah, Grace, and Angela...after many Google searches and phone calls, we came up with a master plan (scroll down to "Itenerary"). During this trip we visited Petit Martinique and Carriacou, swam with turtles, explored the ultimate gem of the Grenadines (Tobago Cays), and relaxed on a cute secluded [Happy] Island with some new down to earth friends. Did we mention that we discovered the best Lime Pie ever?!? Our Journey in a Nutshell We took a water shuttle (Osprey) from Grenada to Carriacou (~1 1/2 hrs on bigger boat going to Carriacou, Osprey express took ~2hrs from Carriacou to Grenada). From Carriacou, we ventured out on a private boat with Cuthbert Snagg or Snagg Tours to Tobago Cays (departed morning, arrived evening). From Carriaco's Paradise Beach, we took a short speedboat ride (few mins) to Sandy Island. Everything else, we took a taxi. We all had such an unforgettable time on this trip. We hope you have a chance to go out and see it with your own eyes. Details Below Grenada is made up of 3 islands- Carriacou (population 5,000), Petit Martinique (population 1,000), and Grenada (popultion 110,000). Tobago Cays is a chain of uninhabited magnificent islands. Tobago Cays Source Where is Tobago Cays in relation to Carriacou? (~40min boat ride) *If it's not in your budget to visit Tobago Cays, Carriacou alone is worth visiting and exploring. Though much more quiet than Grenada, Grenada, it does have many gems of its own that are totally worth seeing. *Hotels next to the dock on main street in "downtown" -Hotel Laurena - We stayed here. Laurena herself assisted us with everything and even gave us mini gift bags to take home. Convenient location and great rates. Laurena's Jerk center is also right next to the hotel and is probably the only eatery place that closes late night (food here similar to local food on the main island). -Ade's Dream *(Must Eat) Eatery places in Carriacou -Kayak Cafe- Good for lunch or dinner. Sally, the chef of the restaurant has been living in Carriacou for 29 years. She's from Europe and always changes up her menu. She even grows herbs and vegetables in her backyard for her restaurant to keep things interesting. Lovely dinner, delicious fruit smoothies, and best LIME PIE EVER. Located on mainstreet next to pier. -Bogle's Roundhouses- My Favorite Restaurant in all Grenada. Honestly, I was happy thoughout my whole meal and by the looks of my friend's faces, they were pretty happy as well. ~ 5min drive from main street. I suggest taking a taxi. Our Carriacou food experiences was the cherry on top of our adventures. *Island Tour (on a bus) - We went during dry season so the island was pretty dry looking, monotonous in color. The Island tour guide suggest taking the tour during wet season for better views. If visiting during dry season, I would stick to visiting Carriacou's beaches and restaurants as there was nothing distinct and jaw dropping discovered on the island tour. *Suggestions from others: La Playa Beach Bar in Hillsborough and the Slipway in Tyrell Bay *Day Trip to Tobago Cays- Destinations: Petit Martinique, pass by Petit St. Vincent, Myreau, Happy Island, Mopian, Swim with Turtles, Lunch point Cuthbert Snagg provided us with a great tour. He's my landlady's cousin and I love my landlady so he automatically won my trust. We didn't know where to go and simply requested for him to take us to the main tourist attractions. He's really flexible so if there's a certain place you have in mind, you can definitely work it into your schedule. He also provides lunch for a small extra fee just in case you don't want the trouble of preparing one for yourself. If I were to go back, I would've requested an early return to Carriacou to catch Sandy Island (so we wouldn't have to pay extra fees for an extra speedboat). His boat was very reliable and best of all it had shade. One thing I learned is you want to stick with someone who has experience and has a reliable boat just in case anything were to happen out in the open sea (which can be dangerous and intimidating at times). If you're prone to motion sickness, don't worry because his boat was more of a speedboat that cuts through water so you don't feel any wave rocking at all. I'm very prone to motion sickness and did not get sick. The boat ride to the Cays was one of the group's highlights. We laughed and screamed the whole time as gigantic waves threw us up and down and constantly appeared to swallow us whole at time. It was the best roller-coaster ride ever. We thank Cuthbert for showing us a great time and keeping us safe. If interested, call Cuthbert to work out all the details and make sure you request his bigger boat. Depending on the amount of people you have, you may find yourself with other tourist.

It will make paying for things much easier. -stay hydrated -take motion sickness pills before osprey ride if you're prone. While in motion, try staying in one place and keep your eyes on the horizon. Boat men advise motion sickness prone people to stay up top, but if you're looking to not get sun burned, the back of the boat on the lower level is good too. -I didn't take motion sickness pills for my day tour to Tobago Cays and I was completely fine. -Bring lots of good quality body and lip sunscreen and apply religiously. All of us got sunburn everywhere, even some of our heads too. -don't forget to empty out your memory card, charge your battery, and bring an underwater camera if you plan on swimming with our turtle friends -bring your own snorkelling gear for maximum comfort -tobago cays is so amazing. hope you don't miss out on this gem. -make sure you go with good company. This trip wouldn't have topped off as my all time favorite trip without the good company of my friends. -Your may use your Lime and Digicel cell phones in Carriacou without extra charge.
