    @donaldpolson5450 Рік тому +5

    Great to hear a French speaker on a Grenada travel video as finally someone who pronounces the place names accurately! Enjoyed this and your enthusiam. Just a few points: a) Grooms Beach is the popular name for Parc a Boeuf beach (would have loved to hear you pronounce this); b) Yes unfortunately Pink Gin (I read this is a mispronunciation of the original Pinguin Beach - not sure about this!) has become private for Sandals' guests but you can get to it down a steep road that leads to the Aquarium Restaurant or coming over the cliff; c) the rough waters on Bathway beach and the eastern side of the island isn't to do with the time of year, rather it is because this is the Atlantic Ocean - the western side of the island is the Caribbean sea; d) An alternative travel route to Carriacou, if you find sea travel uncomfortable/sickly is to fly by plane - it is more expensive but far quicker with more arrival/departure times.

    This was an incredibly comprehensive and well put together video. I was even surprised by the segment on Carriacou - excellent! I lived on the islands of carriacou & Grenada over 20 years ago and plan to visit again this summer. It’s been a long time since I visited so wanted to see what kind of itinerary I could create for a 2 week stay and this solved my entire conundrum! I will try to do everything outlined in this video.
    Also as a side note: what is the name of the drone used to capture those breathtaking aerial shots? Thanks!

    The sculpture park is very easy to get to, just take a bus and ask them to drop you of at the park. If you're driving on the westside, it's the next village north of Grand Mal, which is 5 minutes outside the town of St. George. You will have to go through Mt. Moritz and that will land you in Happy Hill. Once there, just ask anyone and they'll direct you, we like helping people. Welcome to Grenada....Forward ever!

    Grenada looks nice but my favorite island is Antigua. Antigua has over 365 beaches and many have white sand and barely anyone on them.

    • @laniabrowne359
      @laniabrowne359 5 місяців тому +3

      I have been to Antigua and did an island tour. I realized quickly that each entrance to a beach is counted as a separate beach. Why?
      Imagine if Grenada did the same thing by giving separate names to entrances of the 'same beach', they would end up with over 500 beaches. But Grenada isn't over-dramatic like Antigua.
      Both countries have white, sandy, beautiful beaches just like Barbados.
      As a Grenadian living in Grenada. Some of these beaches are not as crowded as stated in the video. For example, Magazine Beach is actually a private beach located close to the airport, and public transportation do not go there.
      Btw, I love Antigua... the people are also very friendly there.

    Those aren't scammers, please don't denigrate the owners of the property. It's about three, 2 local and one Ukrainian, different owners before the start of the trail and you can pay anyone of them for entry. The one with the black house is just the one closes to the start of the trail, very nice people. You can pay at the first property and walk in. You can park at the second, the Ukrainians and use the parking lot, they normally don't charge for people parking but they've been closed for a while now. It looks like they're reopening soon though. The black house is very convenient, location, so most people stop there. The entire property is privately owned so you will have to pay somebody, it is not a public space.

    • @TravelRoads
      @TravelRoads  Рік тому

      This was not our experience at all. We talked to people who were forced to park down the road and pay an entrance. We also spoke with other locals who told us about the situation. The trail starts at the little black house and not before. It seems a pretty unfair situation for the lawful owners of the property. Just go on Tripadvisor and read some of the comments there too.
