Fort George is situated on an elevated peninsula that commands the harbour entrance, a position that has given the fort enormous strategic importance since the French constructed it in the first decade of the 18th century. Although it continues to serve as the police headquarters, Fort George is most appreciated today for the views that it offers to sightseers. Much of its elaborate colonial structure remains intact, and part of the pleasure of a visit is rambling around among the passages and stairs of the ancient stone fortifications. Fort George still maintains a battery of old cannons, which are used on special occasions to fire off a resounding salute.
The most accessible waterfall in St George's. Close to Grand Etang Forest reserve. Local divers will jump from the top of the falls for some of your photo opportunities – Some men are dressed in Grenada’s national colors. There are trails leading to the top to look down to the pool.
