Complete Grenada Travel Guide 2026

The best time to visit Grenada is December to April for dry, sunny weather ideal for beaches and outdoor adventures, with temperatures averaging 27-30°C (81-86°F). This peak season avoids the June-November wet season's higher rainfall and hurricane risk, though shoulder months like May or November offer fewer crowds and lower prices.

Grenada's tropical climate features consistent warmth year-round, but trade winds keep it comfortable. Dry season brings calm seas for snorkeling at the Underwater Sculpture Park, while wet months enhance rainforest hikes to Seven Sisters Falls with fuller cascades. As of 2026, expect average highs of 30°C in summer and 28°C in winter, with humidity peaking July-October.
