Grenada
Caribbean nutmeg exporter
Grenada is an island nation in the Caribbean, the southernmost of the Windward Islands.
Known as the "Spice Isle" for its nutmeg and mace production, it gained attention when the United States invaded in 1983 following a military coup.
The capital is St.
George's.
We sailed to Grenada for the regatta.
