The Mt. Rich petroglyphs comprise several large boulders set in a deep ravine, with over 60 pre-Columbian carvings. The Interpretation Center offers a viewing platform, recently renovated by a local youth group (MYCEDO) who offers information on the petroglyphs ($5 EC) and a tour around the abandoned estates and villages nearby ($15EC).
It is a must see for people who are actually interested in the history of this amazing island. Carmen gave us a tour down to the riverside where you find the petroglyphs. We could see them up close and see even more (work)stones that can not been seen from the veranda that is looking over the stones. You can choose if you only want to look through the binaculours from above or the whole tour, we went as I said down to the stones. It is pretty hard for people who are less flexible to go down. But it is worth your time and effort. It took us 5 minutes to go down and there we were looking at 1300 year old carved stones! It was amazing! Carmen was very passionate about perserving this pearl of history. Keep it up!

Welcome Rock gives you the best views on the whole island of Grenada. It is quite hard to get to, and involves a little trekking, but the views are worth it! You can see all the northern islands, I recommend going for sunrise or sunset.

A bit of a trek from Grand Anse Beach but well worth the ride. We had our own car so getting out there was a little bit of an adventure of it’s own through the rain forest. A great way to see other parts of the island. Belmont Estate is the real deal - working cocoa bean / chocolate factory. Our three children had an amazing experience. I submitted a review on the site right after our trip with very high compliments for Kelly our guide - he was born for this! From learning about cocoa processing, talking parrot, playing with turtles and feeding the Mona monkeys, we had a wonderful time. Can’t say enough.

WOW! What a view from here! Very pretty! Miss Agnes gave us a tour and explained lots of history. It was very interesting. Be sure and go to her little shop up by the church and school and have some homemade ice cream-the soursop was delicious!
