Walkable, picturesque town at the pier and Grand Anse beach is a short taxi or water-taxi ride.
Where ships dock
- Melville Street Cruise Terminal, St. George's
Getting to town
The terminal opens through the Esplanade Mall into downtown St. George's. Market Square and the Carenage are short, flat walks. Fort George is a steep uphill walk with steps.
Taxis wait outside the terminal. The Grenada Airports Authority rate table lists EC$40 (about US$15) for Grand Anse, and some sources report lower quotes, so expect roughly US$13–16 each way and confirm first. Water taxis to Grand Anse are sold at a terminal kiosk; recent reports vary (about $15 per person round trip).
Fares are as reported by the sources below and change often. Treat them as estimates.
