Essential Driver FAQs
Do I need an International Driving Permit (IDP) or a local driving permit to rent a car in Grenada?
You do not strictly require an IDP if your license is in English, but you MUST obtain an official Grenadian Temporary Visitor Driving Permit. This document costs approximately XCD 30 to XCD 60 (USD 12-25) and is issued directly by car rental agencies or local police stations upon displaying a valid national driver's license.
Which side of the road do you drive on in Grenada, and what are the main hazards?
Driving is strictly on the LEFT side of the road. Major road hazards include steep mountain grades, blind switchback curves, unlit nighttime roads, roaming livestock, and deep open roadside drainage gutters ('V-gutters') that can destroy vehicle axles if a wheel slips off the road.
Are there toll roads anywhere in Grenada?
No, Grenada has zero toll roads, toll bridges, or congestion fee zones. All highways and municipal thoroughfares across the mainland and Carriacou are free of statutory road tolls.
Can I take my Grenada rental car to Carriacou on the ferry?
No. Rental agreements strictly prohibit transporting rental vehicles on cargo barges to Carriacou or Petite Martinique. Doing so voids all insurance coverage, and you will be held liable for any recovery fees, transport costs, and administrative breach penalties up to USD 1,000.
Is a 4WD or SUV necessary for driving in Grenada?
While standard hatchbacks can navigate the southern highways, a high-clearance vehicle or compact 4WD/AWD (such as a Suzuki Jimny or Vitara) is highly recommended. The rainforest crossings, unpaved beach tracks, steep elevation changes, and uneven road surfaces make extra ground clearance and power vital.
What should I do if my rental car slides into a roadside concrete gutter in Grenada?
Do not attempt to accelerate out, as this typically causes severe transmission, oil pan, or axle damage. Contact your rental company's 24/7 roadside assistance hotline immediately. Local passersby or wrecker services often assist with high-lift jacks, but documented inspection by the rental operator is mandatory.
