Hillsborough is the main village on Carriacou. This is where the Osprey Ferry from Grenada arrives. The largest town on Carriacou was established at the end of the 18th century.
As a developing port and landing point for inter-island vessels, it is also a center for shopping and socializing and home to our annual Regatta festival and Carnival celebrations. Hillsborough Bay creates a very nice sandy beach that stretches the entire length of town and is merely steps from the colorful scenes of Main Street. At the north end of Hillsborough are a dive center and a hotel at Beausejour Bay Beach or Silver Beach.
