Travel inspiration behind this plan

Plan notes

Useful context before you go

Pack lightweight swimwear, water shoes, reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, dry bags, and quick-drying clothing for the heat and water-based excursions. Expect temperatures around 85–90°F and strong sun, so carry water and plan downtime between activities. The river tubing excursion requires both hands for the handles, and the guides advise keeping your legs uncrossed and grabbing the ropes when instructed. Leave cameras and phones behind during tubing unless the operator provides secure waterproof equipment. Grenada's Maurice Bishop International Airport is small, and the resort area is only a few minutes away by taxi; the creator paid approximately $12 from the airport to the resort. Keep cash available for taxis, street food, drinks, and watersports. This plan stays faithful to the supplied recommendations and does not add unnamed attractions.

Itinerary highlights

What is in this plan

Day 1: Arrival, Resort Reset & Silversands Dinner

Use the first day to arrive, complete customs, transfer by taxi, and settle into the resort before adding a relaxed pool or dinner plan. The airport is small, but the Miami connection can be tight, so allow time to walk between gates if connecting there.

  1. Maurice Bishop International AirportMaurice Bishop International Airport, St. George's, Grenada

    Complete arrival formalities here. The airport is described as small, with baggage claim visible from the customs line and only a few customs booths.

  2. Royalton GrenadaRoyalton Grenada, Magazine Beach, St. George's, Grenada

    Take a short taxi transfer from the airport to the resort. The creator paid about $12 and described the ride as only a few minutes, though the fare felt high for the short distance.

  3. Royalton GrenadaRoyalton Grenada, Magazine Beach, St. George's, Grenada

    Check into Royalton Grenada and allow extra time for the walk to the room. The creator noted stairs, no elevator on part of the route, and significant heat, so keep arrival luggage manageable and hydrate.

  4. Royalton GrenadaRoyalton Grenada, Magazine Beach, St. George's, Grenada

    Use the resort pool for an easy first afternoon after the early flight. The pool was described as a highlight, with particularly impressive views at night and during the day.

  5. Grenadian GrillGrenadian Grill, Silversands Grenada, Grand Anse, Grenada

    Have dinner at Grenadian Grill within Silversands. This is the specifically named dinner stop and suits the first evening after a long travel day.

  6. Grenadian GrillGrenadian Grill, Silversands Grenada, Grand Anse, Grenada

    Take in the Silversands resort setting around dinner. The creator highlighted the resort, pool, and views, especially how striking they looked at night and imagined in daylight.

Days 2-3: Monkeys, River Tubing, Waterfall & Grand Anse Watersports

This is the active core of the trip. Start with breakfast, then commit to the guided tubing and waterfall excursion while carrying water shoes and a change of clothes. Reserve the beach and jet activities for the final day, leaving recovery time after the excursion.

  1. Mona MonkeysMona Monkeys, Grenada

    Stop at Mona Monkeys before the tubing portion of the excursion. The visit includes seeing the monkeys and hearing information about Grenada from the tour guides.

  2. Mona MonkeysMona Monkeys, Grenada

    Join the river tubing and rafting portion of the excursion. Wear water shoes, expect the river to feel colder or faster after rain, and leave the camera behind because both hands are needed for the tube.

  3. Mona MonkeysMona Monkeys, Grenada

    Follow the guides' safety instructions during the river section: do not cross your legs, keep the correct hand position, and grab the ropes whenever instructed. The guides also provide entertainment and encourage guests to splash back.

  4. Mona MonkeysMona Monkeys, Grenada

    Continue to the waterfall reached by the trail from the excursion area. The creator described a beautiful waterfall, a small bar for drinks, and the option to swim, although the water appeared muddy after the river activity.

  5. Mona MonkeysMona Monkeys, Grenada

    Use the waterfall trail and surrounding scenery as the slower portion of the excursion after tubing. Expect wet shoes and clothing, and bring a dry change for the return journey.

  6. Mona MonkeysMona Monkeys, Grenada

    Pick up jerk chicken from the street-side food shops after the excursion. This is the specific casual food stop mentioned after the waterfall visit.

  7. Grenadian GrillGrenadian Grill, Silversands Grenada, Grand Anse, Grenada

    Spend the final beach day at Grand Anse Beach. The beach was described as about 2.5 miles long, with very blue water and enough room to relax between activities.

  8. Grenadian GrillGrenadian Grill, Silversands Grenada, Grand Anse, Grenada

    Book jet skis through AJ Watersports at Grand Anse Beach. The creator described the water as exceptionally blue and noted that conditions were good for a beach day.

  9. Grenadian GrillGrenadian Grill, Silversands Grenada, Grand Anse, Grenada

    Consider the jet car option at the same watersports stop. The quoted price was approximately $130–$140 per jet car, with two people able to ride together.

  10. Grenadian GrillGrenadian Grill, Silversands Grenada, Grand Anse, Grenada

    Ask the watersports crew about local marine conditions before entering the water. The beach conversation specifically mentioned barracuda and stingrays, so follow local guidance and keep a respectful distance from marine life.
