Sauteurs
Spend a half‑day in Sauteurs, walk the village and Levera Natural Park; add a 2‑hour visit to Leapers Hill if you have extra time.
Sauteurs is a small fishing village in northern Grenada with a few walkable sights – the historic Leapers Hill, mangrove‑fringed Levera Natural Park, Lake Antoine and a rum distillery. One half‑day covers the core; a full day allows a relaxed beach visit and a short boat trip to Sandy Island.
