What Grenada looks like After Hurricane Beryl (2024)
Witness the aftermath of hurricane Beryl in Grenada, Caribbean less than 24 hours after she struck.
The morning after hurricane Beryl hit Grenada, I traveled from my home in the island’s capital, St George to one of the hardest hit areas in the most northerly parish.
The recovery effort was remarkable with streets cleared and fallen trees cut to enable services to travel the island. The garbage collection service even made it to our door!
However, with power and phone lines down I traveled by car to my home parish of St Patrick in the north of Grenada, to search for three elderly relatives who I was unable to reach.
Hope this video reassures you as to the state of Grenada, even in the north. The island fared much better than Carriacou and Petit Martinique and
Here are a list of places you can make donations to the recovery effort:

    I'd say spot on. I spend time in Canada and Grenada equally. I feel like I'm going back in time when I'm in Grenada. Before the internet was invented. 😉 Having to go into St. George's to line up to pay a bill seems archaic.

      I hear you! Do you have a local bank account? if so, you can pay your electric bill directly from your account. Flow (broadband) I pay using their online payment system - NAWASA is the only one I'm yet to crack (it could probably be paid via a Coop bank account too).

    You are so right, and you are very brave to talk such truths. The drivers are reckless, aggressive, and don't have any consideration for other road users. There are almost always no sidewalks, and the vehicles take priority over humans. The potholes become more plentiful and more dangerous each day, and road repairs are neglected. Staff dealing with the public are mostly condescending, rude, disrespectful, impolite, and unhelpful. Most workers seem to be bitter and unhappy in their jobs. Their pay is abysmal. Most workers are on temporary contracts, including public service workers with over 10 years service on temporary contracts. So most workers are not entitled to paid holidays or paid sick leave, and can be sacked with zero hours notice and with no reason given. This has a detrimental effect on how they treat customers. There seems to be no set criteria for opening a bank account. The bank staff seem to decide on the basis of whether they like or dislike you, regardless of what documents and references you produce, unless you are white, and they hate you if you are a Black JCB. It's to do with slave mentality. If you are Black, you need to know someone who knows someone that works in a bank in order to open a bank account.

    I am of Jamaican descent and I'm doing my research on where I'll be moving aboard to live. For as long as I can remember, my spirit has never been at peace in the U.S. I appreciate my parents migrating to the States so I can have opportunities they didn't. However, I still face systematic barriers that make me resent my society. I'm a modest woman who wants to raise her children to slow down and appreciate the simple things in life. I've considered Jamaica, and I love my culture, but there are a few things that don't sit well with me when it comes to their healthcare, crime, and economy (which, to your point, is heavily rooted in tourism). Decisions, decisions.

    I remember when I worked at Le Phare Bleu (many moons ago) and I believe GIZ bought in a water specialist back then and he was staying at the hotel. He was scared for Grenada as he knew we were going to run out of water, even without any development. This was probably 10/12 years ago and he was working on a document putting his recommendations forward. Someone even paid for a huge desalination unit that sat there and rusted away. Yes, lets look forward, life is about timing and let's hope the timing is right now.

    Thank you for this information. My wife and I just returned from Grenada last week and we would like to retire to the island. We have friends there and would like to buy a home on the North end, St. Patrick’s area. We are US citizens, wife is AfAm, I am Caucasian, we felt very welcomed during our time there, unlike here in the U.S. We have grown children and have faced so many issues because of our family. The kids went through so many issues when they were in school and I was deeply discriminated against at my job because of my family. We just want to move in a more rural area of the island, maybe run a B&B. We stayed in Mont Tout/close to Grand Anse Beach and really connected with the people, we walked all over and enjoyed the beach and eating at the local eateries, we both enjoyed the peaceful way it became in the evenings, just sat in our porch and had or something to eat. Now we are back in the very cold, racially polarized Virginia and missing the beautiful Grenada. Hope to go back and stay in St. Patrick next Spring. Love your channel.

    "They", the ones running tings "behind the curtain" are trying to keep the locals poor. There's no good reason why food should be inported from other countries into grenada (costing over £50 million). There's plenty land to grow an abundance of "healthy organic" food on the island.
