Itinerary

1. Fort Frederick

   Fort Frederick and Fort Matthew are two historic forts perched atop Richmond Hill in St. George’s, Grenada, offering stunning panoramic views of the capital, Grand Anse Beach, and the southern coast. Fort Frederick, built by the French in 1779, is known as the “backward-facing fort” due to its strategic inland design to defend against land attacks. Just a short walk away, Fort Matthew is Grenada’s largest fort, with a fascinating past as a military hospital and later a mental institution. Both sites blend rich colonial history with breathtaking scenery, making them must-see stops for culture and photo lovers alike.

2. GCNA Grenada Nutmeg

   The Grenada Co-operative Nutmeg Association (GCNA) nutmeg plants are at the heart of the island’s identity as the “Spice Isle.” These thriving trees produce the fragrant nutmeg seed and its bright red aril, known as mace. At GCNA processing stations, you can see how nutmeg is harvested, dried, sorted, and prepared for export — a tradition that has powered Grenada’s economy for over a century.
