Saint Andrew Essentials

Saint Andrew is Grenada's largest parish, characterized by its rugged volcanic interior and dense rainforests. The region is home to the Grand Etang National Park, which features a crater lake 1,740 feet above sea level and the island's highest peak, Mount Saint Catherine. Visitors can explore the tallest cascades at Mt. Carmel Waterfalls, hike the ridgeline of Mount Qua Qua, or see historical Soviet-era aircraft wrecks at Pearls Airport. The parish also hosts the bustling spice markets of Grenville and the reef-protected waters of Cabier Beach.
