St. John centres on Gouyave, the island's busiest fishing town and home to the well-known Fish Friday street party every week.
Sitting on the west coast, the parish has kept its working-village character — fishing boats and spice processing are still part of everyday life here. That authenticity tends to translate into better value compared to the more developed south.
If you want a genuine slice of Grenadian life with the sea close by, St. John deserves a visit.
