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!

We also offer Sunday Brunches, Afternoon Teas and venue rentals. We offer the traditional English Afternoon Tea and also our unique blends of floral teas made from organically grown plants on the estate. Call or email for a reservation.
We spent a lovely afternoon at the Tower Estate, first touring the beautiful gardens with flowers and fruit trees -- avocado, mango, carambola -- and then the historic great house with lots of memorabilia from World Wars 1 and 2. Old photographs of the several generations of family. Very personal tour and interesting anecdotes by a family member. We also enjoyed afternoon tea on the veranda, a very pretty setting with cucumber sandwiches, chocolate and carrot cake muffins, and cake. The blue butterfly pea flower tea was tasty and pretty. If you are looking for a way to spend an afternoon that is not the typical beach holiday, this is a marvelous way to do it.

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.
