Grenada & Carriacou / Taxis

Taxis are widely available around the island (if you can’t find one just walk into the nearest hotel and they’ll find one for you), with taxi stands located at the airport, the Food Fair Shopping complex and Spiceland Mall in Grand Anse, in most hotels and on the waterfront in St George’s by the Nutmeg. Taxis are not metered, as fares are fixed, however it is always a good idea to confirm the cost of your journey before setting off.

Taxi fares (rates in EC$) between Maurice Bishop International Airport: 
Grand Anse - EC$25-$35

After 6pm, add EC$10 to the fare. Waiting is charged at EC$15 per hour and if you want to hire a cab to take you sightseeing then the rate is EC$40 per hour.
