Travel Tips:

1. Now that you know where Grenada is located, be sure to take all the necessary vaccinations before leaving for this country. There is a high chance of contracting malaria, so be careful.
2. Since solar activity is very high here, it is best to take sunscreens with you.
3. The crime rate in this country, although not high, will not be out of place if you scan all the important documents before the trip. It is best to have them in two forms: printed and electronic media (tablet, laptop, etc.).
4. Also, no matter how sad it may sound, beware of people who volunteer to help. They may turn out to be real scammers themselves. There are cases when a person offered to convey things, and then demanded a very high fee for his work.
5. Few people know, but collecting corals from the bottom, and even more so trying to take them out of the country, is prohibited. Therefore, do not make such mistakes.
6. If you do not have as much time to study the country as you would like, then initially make a list of the places that you want to visit. In this case, you will have time to see much more.
7. If you really want to relax, and not solve business issues, then leave your phone at home, and tell your relatives in advance.
8. You can fearlessly swim in the sea near the beach, because because of coral reefs sea predators cannot get here. But to swim far, we do not advise you, since this is already unsafe. There can be strong undercurrents and marine predators.
9. And the last tip for travelers. Do not forget that you are in another country. If you want to be treated well, you don’t need to behave arrogantly and rudely, remember that you are guests here. The locals are quite friendly people, but very respecting their traditions and customs.
