Sendall Tunnel: A Historic Passage Through St. George's
Step back in time at the Sendall Tunnel, a historic passageway connecting St. George's harbor to the heart of the city since 1894.
The Sendall Tunnel, constructed in 1894, is a 340-foot passage that connects the harbor to the city center of St. George's, Grenada. Originally built for horse-drawn carriages, it now accommodates both vehicles and pedestrians, offering a unique, if somewhat charmless, shortcut through the hillside.
