Morne Rouge Bay is a sheltered beach on Grenada’s southwestern coast, just south of Grand Anse and near the community of Morne Rouge. The bay curves around a small, protected stretch of pale sand, with calm Caribbean water and green hills surrounding the shoreline. Its sheltered position generally produces gentler conditions than Grenada’s more exposed Atlantic coast, making the bay suitable for swimming and paddling.
