La Plage Beach Bar

Grand Anse is the Spice Island’s most beautiful beach, and Umbrellas pours rum punch made with actual Grenadian rum and nutmeg grown right on the island around you.

Blink and you’ll miss Esther’s – literally no bigger than a closet, tucked into a row of drink kiosks inside the open-air Grand Anse Craft and Spice Market. Look for stall number six. What it lacks in square footage it makes up for with a devoted, mostly local following and a slot on USA Today’s 2025 Ten Best Caribbean Beach Bars list. The tiny, family-run team remembers your order, the cocktails are meticulously made (expect to wait, and expect it to be worth it), and live music from elsewhere in the market usually drifts over by late afternoon. Come around 4pm as the vibe starts building. Minimalist doesn’t begin to cover it, but somehow it works completely.

A compact, wood-built bar tucked into the trees on Grenada’s BBC Beach, deliberately low-key and weekends-only. Cold Carib, honest rum punch, and island bbq worth timing your Sunday around.

Roger’s is the kind of local Grenadian bar regulars protect by simply not mentioning it in guidebooks, fish straight from the morning’s boats and conversation that comes from the heart.

Mick Jagger, David Bowie, and Princess Margaret have all passed through this driftwood-floored bar on the private island of Mustique, the Wednesday Jump-Up remains the hottest party in the entire private Caribbean.
