It’s easier than ever to visit the island of Grenada right now, and the island is only making things easier for travelers looking for a fall getaway.

And Grenada has plans for a big season, with a number of hotels offering special packages for visitors. 

“We are very excited for this upcoming fall and winter season. Our monthly on-island events have the island buzzing and we have several new and improved experiences thanks to our industry partners and the Grenadian people who have worked tirelessly to provide an exceptional experience to those visiting,” said Petra Roach, CEO, Grenada Tourism Authority.

Those traveling to the destination this year can stay and enjoy some of the island’s upcoming events including the Grenada Rugby World 7’s Tournament (November 30 – December 2) and the Carriacou Parang Festival (December 15 – 17).
