What should I pack when moving to Carriacou Island?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Carriacou Island to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Carriacou Island, it's essential to pack lightweight, breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items like shorts, t-shirts, sundresses, and swimwear. Don't forget a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings or air-conditioned environments. Pack plenty of sun protection, including a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and high-SPF sunscreen. It's also a good idea to bring along a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated in the heat. Comfortable walking shoes or sandals are a must, especially if you plan on exploring the island's beautiful landscapes. If you're planning on snorkeling or diving, consider packing your own gear, although it can also be rented on the island. Remember to pack all necessary toiletries, including any prescription medications you may need. It's also wise to bring a basic first aid kit, as well as insect repellent to protect against mosquitoes. Bring along your passport, driver's license, and any other necessary identification. Also, don't forget to pack copies of important documents, such as your birth certificate, insurance policies, and medical records. If you're planning on working or studying on the island, be sure to pack your laptop, charger, and any other necessary electronics. A universal power adapter may also be useful, as the electrical outlets in Grenada may be different from those in your home country. Lastly, consider packing a few items to remind you of home, such as photos or favorite snacks. These can help ease any homesickness and make your new place feel more comfortable," said a member in Carriacou Island, Grenada.
