Free Wi-Fi is fairly easy to find in St. George's and around Grand Anse, with most hotels, cafés, and restaurants offering it to guests, and the government has also rolled out free Wi-Fi at some public spaces like market squares and beaches. That said, coverage is more inconsistent once you're away from the main tourist strip, and speeds can bog down in the evenings. A pre-loaded eSIM is the more predictable option for maps, ride arrangements, and staying connected on day trips around the island or over to Grand Anse. - Local price per GB: $1.81/GB average for locals (rank 150 of 237 countries, BestBroadbandDeals Worldwide Mobile Data Pricing study) - Free Wi-Fi: Common around St. George's — hotels, cafés and restaurants near the Carenage harbor, plus the airport, generally offer free Wi-Fi, and the government added free Wi-Fi at public spots like market squares and some beaches in 2021-2022 — though connections can be inconsistent, fine for messaging and email but sometimes strained on video calls during peak evening hours. - Paid Wi-Fi: Uncommon as a dedicated tourist product — parish libraries and community centers run subsidized public internet access points funded by the island's Universal Service Fund, but most visitors rely on free hotel/café Wi-Fi or mobile data rather than paying by the hour at a standalone internet café. ## International airports - GND — Maurice Bishop International Airport (Saint George's) — https://gaa.gd/ ### Travel advisories - Advisory data not currently available for this country. ## Local SIM / phone number situation Tourists buying a prepaid SIM from Digicel or Flow in Grenada need a passport or other government-issued photo ID; no biometric or fingerprint scan is required. Guides disagree on where exactly you can buy one: one source describes carrier kiosks in the arrivals area at Maurice Bishop International Airport open for most incoming flights, while another reports SIMs are sold only at in-town Digicel and Flow stores in St. George's, not at the airport itself — so it's safest to plan on a short trip into town if you land and don't see a kiosk. Once at a store, registration and activation of a physical SIM typically takes about 10-15 minutes. Pricing looks reasonable rather than gouged: a Digicel 10GB/7-day bundle works out to roughly $1.30/GB and a Flow 5GB/7-day bundle to about $2.00/GB, bracketing the $1.81/GB local average. - KYC requirements: A passport or other government-issued photo ID is required to buy a prepaid SIM from Digicel or Flow; no biometric or fingerprint scan is required. Digicel's Grenada terms note that connection and activation are subject to a "satisfactory risk assessment," though this appears aimed at credit/postpaid accounts rather than prepaid tourist SIMs. - Wait time: About 10-15 minutes to register and activate a physical SIM once you're at a Digicel or Flow location; sources disagree on whether that location is available right in the airport arrivals area or only at in-town stores in St. George's. - Jetogo Local SIM Hassle Score: 3/10 Wi-Fi calling lets you keep receiving calls and texts on your home phone number over an internet connection — including the data connection from your Jetogo eSIM — without needing a local SIM or number. Turn it on in your phone's settings before you travel (Settings > Phone > Wi-Fi Calling on iPhone, or Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi Calling on Android), and your carrier will route calls to your regular number through data instead of a local cell signal, so friends and family can reach you exactly as they always have. ## Practical travel info - Power sockets: type G — 230V, 50Hz - No alternative plugs will also fit in type G sockets - Emergency numbers: police 911, ambulance 911, fire 911 - Calling code: +1 - Driving side: left - Tipping: Generally expected — mandatory or at least usual _Data via CountryWise._ ## FAQ **Do I need to show my passport to use my Jetogo eSIM in Grenada?** No. Grenada's carriers require a passport or other government ID to register a physical prepaid SIM sold in-store, but that only applies to SIMs bought locally from Digicel or Flow — not to an eSIM you install before you fly. **Is mobile data more expensive in Grenada than other Caribbean islands?** Grenada lands roughly in the middle of the pack — locals pay about $1.81 per GB on average, ranking 150th of 237 countries in the Worldwide Mobile Data Pricing study. That's cheaper than pricier islands like Barbados but more than budget destinations like Thailand, which is one reason a fixed-price Jetogo eSIM plan can be a more predictable option than local pricing. **Will my Jetogo eSIM work at Grand Anse Beach and around St. George's?** Yes. Grand Anse and St. George's, including the Carenage harbor area, are Grenada's most built-up tourist zones and have solid 4G coverage from the island's carrier networks. **How does an eSIM actually work?** An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone — instead of inserting a physical card, you install a small profile (usually by scanning a QR code) and your phone connects to a local or partner network for data. There's nothing to pick up at a store or swap in your device; the whole process happens over Wi-Fi in a couple of minutes. **Is my phone compatible with eSIM?** Most phones from the last 4-5 years support eSIM, including iPhone XS and later, most Google Pixel models from the Pixel 3 onward, and many recent Samsung Galaxy, and other Android flagships. Check Settings > Cellular (or Mobile Network) for an "Add eSIM" or "Add Cellular Plan" option — if it's there, you're set. Your phone also needs to be carrier-unlocked. **When does my eSIM activate — do I need to already be in the country?** You can install your Jetogo eSIM before you fly, but the data plan itself only starts counting once it connects to a network in your destination country — so there's no risk of burning through your allowance early. For most plans, connectivity kicks in automatically the moment you land and your phone finds a signal. **Can I use my eSIM as a personal hotspot?** Yes — hotspot and tethering are included on Jetogo eSIM plans at no extra cost, so you can share your connection with a laptop, tablet, or a travel companion's phone. **What happens when I run out of data? Can I top up?** You can top up directly from your Jetogo account in a couple of taps, without needing to buy a whole new plan or visit a store. Many travelers also use Jetogo's PayGo option, which lets you pay only for the data you actually use instead of committing to a fixed bundle. **Do I need a local phone number to use my eSIM?** No — Jetogo eSIMs are data-only, so there's no local phone number involved. If you need to make calls or send texts, you can use an internet calling app (like WhatsApp or FaceTime) over your eSIM data, or rely on Wi-Fi calling to keep using your existing home number (see below). **What is PayGo and why does it start at $5?** PayGo is Jetogo's pay-as-you-go option: you load a small starting balance — as low as $5 — and only pay for the data you actually use, with no expiration pressure or unused-data waste. It's a low-commitment way to try Jetogo or to cover shorter trips where a full data bundle would be overkill. **Will adding a Jetogo eSIM affect my existing phone number or home plan?** No. Your eSIM runs alongside your regular SIM (physical or eSIM) as a second, independent profile — your home number, texts, and voicemail keep working exactly as before. You simply choose which profile handles data while you're on Jetogo, and switch back anytime after your trip. ## Trust _Content coming soon._ ## Why Jetogo _Content coming soon._ ## Why Choose Jetogo _Content coming soon._ ## Practical travel info _Content coming soon._ ## Other countries pricing _Content coming soon._ --- Weather and air quality data © OpenWeatherMap, licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL): https://openweathermap.org/full-history Exchange rates via Frankfurter (European Central Bank reference rates): https://www.frankfurter.dev
