Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique : Carriacou - Petite Martinique

The volcanic island of Grenada and the smaller Grenadines, Carriacou and Petite Martinique, sit at the southern tip of the Windward Islands chain in the eastern Caribbean.

In 2004, they were decimated by Hurricane Ivan. The nutmeg trees on which the economy was once reliant were destroyed, and buildings and infrastructure collapsed.

But now the islands have been rebuilt, renovated and improved.

They are once more open for business, and enjoying a newfound prosperity as visitor numbers increase year on year.

This guide takes hikers on treks through the rainforest, and divers to The Bianca C, the largest shipwreck in the Caribbean.

It shows cultural visitors the nation's diverse heritage and rich musical traditions � and leads those in need of a little lie-down to unspoilt beaches and secluded coves.
