Long white sandy beach, small bars, sun loungers and umbrellas available. The beach boys are happy to help, but are not intrusive. Clear water

We have been to T&C (best beach Taylor Bay),St Lucia (best beach Anse Chastanet) and Antigua (Pidgeon Beach if you had to push me!) and we think that Grand Anse is definitely at top of list for a number of reasons. We like a beach that is easy to access with a hire car, fairly quiet, good swimming, clean, and is nice to walk along. This beach ticks all those boxes. It is also so long that even on busy days (eg, cruise ship days), you can still find a quiet spot. We are really impressed how clean it is kept (the most rubbish we saw was after a cruise ship of English tourists - come on guys, letting the side down!). There are also some really good restaurants along the beach - Unbrellas and 61West are both fab. Love the fact you can just grab a Carib for same price as supermarket to drink on beach. No jet skis which was great - they ruined Taylor Bay for us. And everyone is so friendly- love the Grenadian people, they definitely make you feel at home. Had no worries walking the length of this beach at night. Cruise ship days we did tend to head elsewhere, just for the number of sunbeds that appear for passengers. The sand is super soft and a mix between white and black depending on which part of beach you are on. We did have a few vendors approach us but they were always respectful and once they had spoken to us did not approach again, just gave us a friendly wave.
