Palm Island is a small island in the Grenadines, about one mile from Union Island. Once a swampy, bug-infested place, the island has been transformed and converted into a coconut plantation by John Caldwell and his wife Mary. Palm Island is today the home of Palm Island Resort and Spa, a luxury 40-room hotel with two restaurants, a pool, gym, and many other facilities. The resort once had a golf course that has since been reclaimed by nature. The island is a heaven for wildlife and birds. It has a number of land turtles, which were brought to replace those washed away by a 2015 hurricane. The most commonly seen animals are geckos, several kinds of lizards, hermit and land crabs, sea turtles, mocking birds, doves, pigeons, sandpipers, herons, hummingbirds, osprey, gulls, and frigate birds.
