Liming in Grenada


"Liming is defined as kicking back, enjoying good food, music and especially good friends."
Roger's Bar is a make shift bar (there's no electricity; all the lights are run off batteries) and on Sundays there is a sort of pilgrimage across the water to Hog Island to chill out, kick back and enjoy the vibes.  Roger's is popular with locals as well as the yachting community and the atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. The island has been purchased by a develper but at the moment there is nothing to stop Roger from his weekly party set up complete with local band.  In fact Roger has been doing this since Rob was first here in the 1990s; however in those days there was a BBQ and food was cooked fresh on the beach.  Now there is a lady who brings food in chafing dishes and sets up beside the bar.  

The first Sunday we went we paddled over from Mount Hartman Bay and just stayed for happy hour.  We met our friends on Katerina and enjoyed the ambience.  The next Sunday we were in Clarke's Court Bay, nearer to Hog Island so we rowed over in Goldberry for more rum punch, Caribs, the local beer and dinner which was barracuda.  The fish was tasty but overpriced for what was served; however Roger does make a mean rum punch?!
