Saint John Parish
Saint John Parish, Administrative parish on the western coast of Grenada
Saint John Parish is an administrative area on Grenada's western coast, with Gouyave serving as its main town and fishing hub. The parish contains agricultural land and processing facilities that form the economic base of the region.
The area received a new transport link in 1889 when an iron bridge connected Gouyave to neighboring areas. Several years later, severe flooding caused significant damage to the local infrastructure.
Fishermen in Gouyave practice traditional methods that have sustained the community for generations. This maritime culture shapes how the town looks and functions in daily life.
The area is known as a center for spice production, with processing facilities that visitors can learn about from local guides. Pathways to the harbor and industrial sites are generally easy to navigate and accessible on foot.
This region holds a special role as the center of nutmeg processing for the island, connecting the local economy to global spice trade. This focus on one crop gives the area a distinct character shaped by agriculture and processing work.
