Ground Transportation
Taxis
Taxis are readily available outside the arrivals hall. Fares are fixed by the government based on destination zones. It is advisable to confirm the fare with the dispatcher or driver before starting your trip. Payment is typically made in cash, with both Eastern Caribbean Dollars (XCD) and US Dollars (USD) often accepted.
Rental Cars
Several local and international car rental agencies have desks located in the arrivals area of the terminal. Options include companies like Avis, Sixt, and various local providers. To rent a vehicle, you will need a valid driver's license from your home country and must purchase a temporary local driving permit, which can usually be obtained from the rental agency. Remember that driving in Grenada is on the left-hand side of the road.
Public Transportation
Public minibuses are the most affordable way to travel. While they do not enter the airport terminal directly, you can catch a Route #1 bus on the main road just a short walk from the airport. These buses run to the main bus terminal in St. George's. This option is best suited for travelers with light luggage, as buses can be crowded and have limited space for bags. Fares are very low and paid in cash (XCD).
