Sandals Grenada All Inclusive - Couples Only

Bamboos are a diverse group of mostly evergreen perennial flowering plants making up the subfamily Bambusoideae of the grass family Poaceae. Giant bamboos are the largest members of the grass family, in the case of Dendrocalamus sinicus having individual stalks (culms) reaching a length of 46 meters (151 ft), up to 36 centimeters (14 in) in diameter and a weight of up to 450 kilograms (1,000 lb). It grows in tropical and subtropical regions, especially in Asia. The internodes of bamboos can also be of great length. Kinabaluchloa wrayi has internodes up to 2.5 meters (8 ft) in length, and Arthrostylidium schomburgkii has internodes up to 5 meters (16 ft) in length, exceeded in length only by papyrus. By contrast, the stalks of the tiny bamboo Raddiella vanessiae of the savannas of French Guiana measure only 10–20 millimeters (0.4–0.8 in) in length by about 2 millimeters (0.08 in) in width. The origin of the word "bamboo" is uncertain, but it most likely comes from the Dutch or Portuguese language, which originally borrowed it from Malay.

If you're looking for a unique and off-the-beaten-path destination for your next trip, WE highly recommend checking out the Bamboo locality in Grenada. This hidden gem in the Caribbean offers a blend of stunning natural beauty, cultural experiences, and a laid-back atmosphere that will leave YOU feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

Nestled in the foothills of the island's central mountain range, Bamboo is a small village that is home to less than 500 residents. Despite its size, this charming community has a lot to offer visitors looking for an authentic Grenadian experience.
