How to get there


Please note
While we are offering  guidance on how to get to Grenada and Carriacou, we are not travel agents and, therefore, cannot stay up to date with the frequent  schedule changes being made these days by the airlines. If you rent Tamarind Cottage, we will do our best to help you find convenient arrangements. 

From the US
From the East Coast/New York City:
- Air Jamaica no longer flies to Grenada. This service has been taken over by Caribbean Airlines, which now has a direct flight, Wednesday and Saturday, from JFK to Grenada.
- A fantastic new addition is the Delta flight (once a week on Saturday) from JFK. This flight gets you to the beach by early morning. And on the return lets you spend most of the day still in the sun.
- Caribbean Airlines also has a flight from JFK to Trinidad where you can catch a LIAT flight to Grenada in time for the afternoon ferry/flight to Carriacou.
- Another way to get to Grenada is via Barbados with JetBlue, where you can catch a flight to Grenada.

From just about anywhere in the US:
American Airlines has connections to Grenada via one of its hubs in Miami or San Juan, PR. American has changed its schedule so you only have to spend one night in Grenada. (The return flight AA2168 leaves GND for MIA at 9:55 AM, but is hard to find)
