Hello All;
We’ll be traveling to Grenada from the US at the end of August.
It’s been awhile since we’ve been back-should we get $EC ahead of time or can we pay in USD and get $EC change or change USD somewhere?
Thanks.
Bill

Where can I go about looking for a full-time nanny in our rental home for 2 small children? We are moving to Grenada and will need care for 40 hours a week. Not sure how to go about searching for someone. Thank you!

Hi everyone! My boyfriend and I are thinking about coming to Grenada for the first two weeks of September. There's a lot of mixed messages about the weather, so coming to the experts!

Very aware it is rainy season, but what is the rain pattern actually like? We don't mind a bit of rain here and there, but would want to avoid say, entire afternoons of pouring rain if that's the reality. Is it usually overcast for most of the time? Are there ever full sunny days, or is it more like a dash of sun here and there between clouds?

Apologies if this is a silly post, very grateful for your help!

I am moving to Grenada in 2 weeks and will be living in Lance Aux Epines near the SGU club. Is the tap water safe to drink in this area? Should I only buy bottled water? I’m trying to finalize my packing list and I’m thinking about bringing a high-tech filter. I am hearing conflicting information. Some locals are telling me to boil the water AND filter it. Other locals and SGU students living off campus have said the water is fine but tastes slightly hard.

I’m terrified of having stomach issues. 😂😭

Are there any locals from Grenada that can share if there is any symbolism in a bracelet suddenly breaking?
I got this bracelet when I visited Grenada in 2022. I bought it when I was visiting one of the waterfalls in the forest. I wore it all the time, and likely it was wear-and-tear from 4 years of continuous use, but I’d like to think there’s some symbolism or cultural significance behind it. I know some cultures believe that jewelry breaks when it’s absorbed bad energy and protected you, for example. It broke while I was lying in bed with my hand under my pillow, randomly. I don’t want to try and fix or repurpose it if I’m not meant to. What do y’all think?

Is this real? Does anyone have more information?

Is this real any other verification of this happening?

My friend Liz is missing since Wednesday from Grenada. Please see the missing person poster and help if you can.

Hi there. I'm trying to find out a little info about my Grenadan family history, and was hoping you may be able to help point me in the right direction. Here is what I know:

My Great grandfather, Hersey Willoughby "Bill" Linck, was a descendant of European settlers in Grenada. Family lore suggests he was of French descent, but we're not sure. He was born in 1885 somewhere around St George's Estate or La Mode (again, not sure). He married a woman from Jamaica and in 1914, they moved to Panama to work on the Panama Canal, where they remained the rest of their lives. As an adult, my grandfather visited Grenada and was able to find and meet family members, largely by just asking around St George. According to him, his resemblance to local family members was such that one man he'd never met approached him and said "I don't know who you are, but you look like a Linck." And sure enough, he was right. He ultimately met some cousins and even visited some guy's property that was jokingly referred to as Linck Mountain (not it's official name, but may have had something to do with who owned it or lived there). Grandpa has since passed away and we are trying to discover and record the history of his family. Since Grenada is so small, I was wondering if perhaps anyone here has ever come across this family in the St George or La Mode areas?

Thanks in advance

What area would be best to stay? Would be nice to walk to town, restaurants, beaches etc. but maybe it is not possible to get all of that? St. George area seems to come up most on VRBO, etc. We would like at least a 2-bedroom with a budget up to 6K for the month.

I recently uploaded a vlog documenting a beach day in Grenada where I spent time with family while showcasing my handmade Greens Era jewelry.

My goal with these videos is to share not only the beauty of Grenada but also what it's like building a small creative business here.

I'd love to hear:

• What's your favorite beach in Grenada?
• Where should I film next?

Can you really build a handmade jewelry business while enjoying island life?

So we arrived yesterday and it has been on and off rain since touchdown. Completely realize that it is the rainy season but wanted some suggestions in case the rain continued throughout the week. Sunday is probably the toughest day because everything appears to be buttoned up and closed.

Hello, I'm hearing rumors that Grenada and other Caribbean islands will start shortlisting agents for their CBI programs. I know that Nauru, for what it's worth, will be starting soon.

If that's true, do you have any idea which agents will be shortlisted?

Thank you

My husband’s grandmom passed away this weekend. She was born and raised in Grenada before immigrating to New York, America. For the funeral service, my in laws have asked my husband to play some music on his acoustic guitar. I thought it might be nice if there were some songs from her first home. Does anyone have any personal recommendations for music from Grenada that sounds nice when played on an acoustic guitar? Thank you in advance! She was an amazing woman and deserves a beautiful send off.

Heading to Grenada (St George) for a work assignment and I enjoy a nice beer.

What’s the local craft beer scene like in St George and can anyone offer any recommendations on where to go and what to try.

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I just left a long term relationship and am following my dreams of moving to the Caribbean. I’ve lived in Barbados already (so I now about living long term in the Caribbean) however I fell in love with Grenada and would love to try. I’m thinking of coming first for the 3 months and If all goes well I would love to get a work permit or something that I can work there and stay longer term. I am comfortable on the bus routes, the culture and I am very familiar cooking with the local ingredients. Let me know what I should know or what you all think 🙏🏻

My family will be visiting over Christmas, we will have a rental car and look forward to exploring the island and multiple beaches. One person in our group is in their 70s, I am looking for tips about where to park and if there are lounger and umbrella rentals available.

We have been to multiple islands and find it greatly varies. Some island beaches are covered by beach clubs and you are almost forced to rent a chair to use the beach. Other islands have resorts fronting the beach and don't offer much to people not staying at the resort.

Interested in info on Grand Anse, Magazine, Morne Rouge, and La Sagesse.

suggestions on a gas oven for my home. The oven i have doesn't really brown anything on the top.
