Hi Pradeep,
No, I no longer live in Grenada, but I hope you will enjoy it! It’s an amazing place.
I’m not sure about duty on electronics. If you plan to move to the island and are shipping stuff there, then yes, you may have to pay duty. But if you are just carrying small personal electronics with you, you should be fine. I came and went many times with my laptop, phone, and other electronics with no problems.

Hi, Nora! I likes your blog a lot! Like you, I have travelled a lot and it seems this upcoming summer, I am in Grenada! Do you still live there? I just found out from there embassy in DC that Americans need to apply for a long term visa before the expiration of a 90-day. I heard that they have some duty on electronics items even if they are used personal effects. Can you please give any info? Thanks

In reply to Doreen Pendgracs. TELL me about it! You've got to like dark chocolate though.....my fav is the Himilayan sea salt dark chocolate bar. Or the one with cocoa nibs in it. Yum!

Sounds great! I’ve been wanting to get to Grenada for awhile now. They’ve got some terrific chocolate!

It is indeed! (Although “affordable” lies in the eye of the beholder. It’s one of those places where you can spend as little – or as much – as you like! But if you keep to local foods and venues, it is very reasonable). When were you in Grenada?

Ironic that you are in Grenada now. I was working with a couple of guys to day raving about Grenada as a an affordable, Caribbean paradise. 🙂

Hey Cheryl – Indeed! It’s a lovely way to wake up. And on most Sundays, the music echoes throughout the valley during the afternoon and evening. No complaints here! 🙂

Well who needs coffee! I’m sure that got the blood flowing for a more speedy caffeine experience. It actually sounded very upbeat anyway.

Ah, the sounds of the Caribbean. Noise levels like this are very common. I welcome the sound of soca dancing up the valley to the muffled sounds of soca trying to escape the trunks of cars. — oh you know what I mean 🙂
