A relatively small island, Grenada is 21 mi (34 km) long and 12 mi (19 km) wide; much of the interior is a lush rain forest. It's a major producer of nutmeg, cinnamon, mace, cocoa, and other spices and flavorings. Carrioacou—23 mi (37 km) north of Grenada is just 13 square mi (34 square km). Tiny Petite Martinique is 2 mi farther north.
