Carriacou and Petite Martinique, two islands in Grenada

Carriacou and Petite Martinique are the lesser-known siblings in Grenada’s tri-island state. Here tranquility reigns, and the islands’ authenticity is their allure. Known as the ‘Land of Reefs’, Carriacou is the larger of the two islands and focus on the preservation of traditional boat building. Petite Martinique, barely 2.4 square miles in size, is a gem of preserved customs. Its residents, mainly fishers and boat-builders, live a self-sustained life, creating an intimate community that values simplicity and hard work.
