Why visit

Home to the Bianca C — the largest shipwreck in the Caribbean — and an underwater sculpture park.

Grand Anse Beach is the base for most divers. Two-tank boats run to the Bianca C and the sculpture park daily; day trips to Carriacou get you to reefs most people never see.

Grenada does wrecks like nobody else in the Caribbean. Fifteen dive-able ships, an underwater sculpture park you can snorkel, and a spice island above water that's finally getting the attention it deserves.
