Here is a short Carriacou Review by Oliver Gray from Winchester, UK.

Sandy Island from Paradise Beach

We visited Carriacou seven years ago and dreamed of going back but never thought we’d have the chance. Here is the original article written back then.

Anyway, last week, we got the chance to revisit. We took the Osprey on a glorious day and found that nothing had changed, indeed, if anything, the vibe was even better. We spent a few hours on the aptly-named Paradise Beach and I swear the roti we had in the Hard Wood Café tasted better than the most expensive gourmet meal imaginable.

The Crowds on Paradise Beach

The only disappointment was that the fabulous Callaloo By The Sea Restaurant has closed down. Otherwise, the trip was confirmation (and we are very widely travelled) that Carriacou is the most beautiful place in the world.

1. Paradise Beach – Paradise Beach is it!! It is worth a day trip or a couple nights away to look at what the Caribbean really still is.!!!!
2. Sandy Island – Take a boat from the Paradise Beach bar {Hardwood} out to Sandy Island. You can depend on them to come back and get you. It’s a great snorkel and a beautiful private beach.
3. Hardwood Bar & The T-Shirt Shop – These two alone are worth the trip, {also on Paradise Beach}.
4. Island Tour – Take a ride around the island and return on the afternoon ferry!
5. Brian’s – Brian’s in Hillsborough serves a good pizza for lunch!
6. Main Street Deli – The Deli on Main Street is a great find. If you are staying on Carriacou, you need to stop in here. The other grocer’s in Hillsborough are extremely helpful, you may need to stop at a few places to find what you need, but they have plenty.

Look around……..it is a great place!
