Secluded Beaches in Grenada That Are Worth Renting a Car For

 

Grand Anse is beautiful. But the beaches locals actually love? Most tourists never find them.

Grenada has over 45 beaches scattered across its coastline — yet most visitors spend their entire holiday on just one or two. That's not because the others aren't worth visiting. It's because without your own transport, they're almost impossible to reach.
If you want to experience Grenada the way locals do — pulling up to a quiet bay with nothing but the sound of waves and a cooler full of cold drinks — renting a car from Safe Wheels Auto Rentals is the best investment you'll make on your trip.
Here are the most secluded beaches in Grenada, and why each one is worth the drive.

 

Levera Beach — Raw, Remote, and Unforgettable

Levera Beach sits at the far northeastern tip of Grenada inside the Levera National Park, and it is genuinely one of the most unspoiled stretches of coastline in the entire Caribbean. There are no vendors here, no beach bars, no lounge chairs for rent. Just wild Atlantic shoreline, sweeping views across to the Grenadine islands, and — between April and July — nesting leatherback sea turtles.
This is the kind of beach that reminds you why you chose Grenada over a resort island.
Drive time from St. George's: Approximately 45–50 minutes north.
What to bring: Packed lunch, plenty of water, sunscreen, and a sense of adventure. There are no facilities on site.

 

La Sagesse Beach — Calm Water, Zero Crowds


Tucked into a protected bay on Grenada's southeast coast, La Sagesse is the kind of beach that stops conversations. The water inside the bay is exceptionally calm and clear — ideal for swimming, snorkelling, or simply floating in silence. Tall trees line the shore providing natural shade, and a small beachside restaurant nearby means you can make a full day of it with a fresh seafood lunch.
It never gets crowded, even in peak season. Visitors who find it tend to come back every single day.
Drive time from Grand Anse: About 25 minutes east along the coast road.
Insider tip: Go on a weekday morning for the best chance of having it almost entirely to yourself.

 

Bathway Beach — A Local Favourite Up North

Bathway Beach on the northeast coast is where Grenadians actually go on weekends. A natural rock reef just offshore breaks the Atlantic swell and creates a calm, sheltered swimming area — making it much safer and more relaxed than it might look from a distance.
It has a lively, local energy that's completely different from the polished tourist beaches in the south. If you want to experience authentic Grenadian beach culture, this is the place.
Drive time from St. George's: Around 50 minutes north.
Pro tip: Combine Bathway and Levera into one north coast day trip — they're only minutes apart.

 

Magazine Beach — Hidden Gem Right by the Airport

Most visitors fly right over Magazine Beach on their way into Maurice Bishop International Airport without realising it exists. Located just minutes from the terminal, this calm crescent of sand is one of the most underrated spots on the whole island.
The snorkelling directly off the beach is excellent, the water is clear and gentle, and it's never overcrowded. It's the perfect first or last stop of your trip — pick up your rental car from Safe Wheels Auto Rentals and head straight here before you've even unpacked.
Drive time from the airport: Less than 10 minutes.
Why it's special: Convenient, quiet, and genuinely beautiful — the combination is rare.

 

BBC Beach— The Local Alternative to Grand Anse
Just around the headland from Grand Anse, Morne Rouge Bay — known locally as BBC Beach — offers everything that makes Grand Anse popular, but without the crowds. The bay is sheltered and crescent-shaped, the water is calm and crystal clear, and the vibe is noticeably more relaxed.
It's one of the easiest detours you can make on the island, and yet a surprising number of tourists never make it around the corner.
Drive time from Grand Anse: Under 5 minutes south.
Best time to visit: Late afternoon when the light turns golden and most day-trippers have left.
