Before you go
None of these fit in a bag. Sort them first and the packing gets easy.
Passport valid past your dates
Grenada wants 6 months left on a passport past February. Check the expiry date now.
Travel insurance
Most home health plans stop at the border. A quote takes two minutes.
eSIM
An eSIM works the moment the phone is switched on in Grenada, with no SIM counter to find.
Copies of your documents
Photograph your passport, cards, and insurance. Email them to yourself. Ten seconds now saves a very bad afternoon.
Some cash in local currency
Cards fail more often than you'd think. Carry XCD for markets and taxis.
Vaccinations / travel clinic
CDC lists Hepatitis A, Typhoid for Grenada. Talk to a travel clinic 4 to 6 weeks out.
The essentials
Tick the box when it is in the bag
What to wear
Lightweight wind jacket
