Saint David's Parish is the fourth largest of the parishes of Grenada in the island's southeast. The parish's main town (largest village) is St. David's, located between La Tante and Westerhall. Because St David's is so small, the parish is sometimes referred to as "The Virgin Parish".[1]
The parish's coast to its east has spectacular headlands, bays and inlets. The unspoilt rocky coastline slopes up gently towards the central mountainous ridge. It is known for its undeveloped bucolic state and secluded beaches.
