It is very picturesque Island. I have been here before and I think that the port of Saint George’s has one of the most picturesque locations in the Caribbean.
Grenada has spice plantations, but I decided to go to the Concord Waterfall. You can go there by taxi. But I went to the local bus station and took the minibus full of the Grenadians. They are very nice and helpful. For just 1 USD (payment in USD is welcomed) they took me via coastal road to the village of Concord.
Then it is 2,5 kms walk to the interior. Normally it is easy. But keep in mind that it goes uphill. And the temperature is around 30 deg Celsius! I did not know about that… It is sweaty but nice walk: a lot of cocoa trees, breadfruit and nutmeg around…
At the waterfall you have to pay 1 USD to get to the viewpoint. It is not much!
Concord Fall is nice! Two drops, some 30 m…
But… There is also upper Concord Fall. They say it is only 15 minutes walk on the path climbing up the river. But the path is wet and muddy. I reached first river crossing – too dangerous after heavy night rain. There are 3 river crossings on the way to the upper fall – the bridges were swept down by the high water.
I returned not so happy. Maybe you will be lucky to see also the upper Concord Fall…
Total cost of the excursion: 3 USD Grenada is beautiful!
