- Palm_Island,_Grenadines abstract "Palm Island in the Grenadines is a tiny island a mile from Union Island, and only accessible by boat. It has an area of 135 acres (0.55 km2) and has five beaches.Originally known as Prune Island, Palm Island got its current name when the former owners, the late John Caldwell ("Johnny Coconut") and his wife Mary, planted hundreds of coconut palms, transforming the deserted, swampy, and mosquito infested island into a palm covered one. Its grass airstrip was sacrificed to the planting of more palms following the construction of a 752-metre (2,467 ft) concrete airstrip on nereby Union Island but its circular air traffic control building remains although it is now used as a nursery for young palms.Palm Island is now the home of Palm Island resort and twenty private holiday villas. There are two restaurants (the Royal Palm Restaurant and the Sunset Grill) and two bars, a spa, swimming pool, gym, library, tennis court, table tennis room and TV/Internet Room plus other facilities for guests. Typically the resort caters for 80 guests and 93 staff.The island golf course has been reclaimed by the natural habitat with just the flagsticks remaining although a 300-metre (980 ft) driving range parallel to the Casuarina Beach is usable but rarely used. The island itself is now a haven for wildlife and during 2015, 125 land turtles were introduced to replace the small population that was washed away by Hurricane Ivan in 2004. Although not indigenous the vegetation is akin to Union Island where they were sourced and they are released from nursery cages as soon as they grow past the size where they would be prey to the native Land Iguanas.Other wildlife easily seen are House Geckos (Gekkonidae), Ground and Tree Lizards, Hermit Crabs, Land Crabs (Coenobitidae). Sea Turtles are reputed to come ashore to lay eggs but rare tracks are usually the only indication that they have visited. The island also provides habitation for Pigeons & Doves (Columbidae), Common Blackbird, Tropical Mockingbird, Sandpipers, Bananaquit, Blue and Crowned Herons (Botaurus) and Humming Bird. The skies above are populated by Osprey, Laughing Gull and Frigatebird. Sand flies or "noseeums" (no-see-em, no-see-ums) as they are known colloquially combined with the ubiquitous mosquito occasionally annoy the hotel guests but blanket spraying by the hotel ground staff keeps their effect to a minimum.".
