A morning on Grenada opens with salt air and a slow, Atlantic swell that seems to test your intentions — push your flip-flops into coral sand and the island will decide if you linger. The tour moves along quiet coastal roads to La Sagesse, where a narrow bay and a protective rock shelf form a shallow swimming pool; palms shift like slow metronomes above white-to-speckled coral sand.
