Grenada is the most southerly of the Windward Islands, about 100 mi (160 km) from the Venezuelan coast. It is a volcanic island traversed by a mountain range, the highest peak of which is Mount St. Catherine (2,756 ft; 840 m).

The capital, St George's, is located on Grenada Island and has one of the prettiest harbor settings in the Caribbean. Carriacou has plenty of traditional East Caribbean towns and friendly locals, while Petit Martinique offers the chance to unwind in a little-known corner of the world.

With its warm weather, there really isn't a bad time to visit Grenada, temperatures average 29°C (84°F). The rainy season is June til November. Even in the driest months it rains quite a bit, though not every day. The second weekend in August is the popular Carnival, the island's biggest and busiest event, so reserve accommodation in advance if you want to enjoy the festivities. Winter is prime fishing season and, accordingly, the Spice Island Billfish Tournament, which draws fishermen from around North America and the Caribbean, is held annually in January.
