Effective 11:59 pm on Friday, 20 March, all crew and passengers aboard pleasure craft and live-aboard will not be allowed to disembark on the shores of Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique.

All passengers and crew are encouraged to make contact via VHF and follow prescribed procedures for receiving their supplies and fuel, as needed.

Prior to 11:59 pm on Friday, all vessels already in the State of Grenada will be allowed to remain, but must follow the established health and safety protocols.

According to the Immigration Act of Grenada: No person shall enter Grenada except at a port of entry.

A person entering Grenada by sea, shall not disembark without the consent of an immigration officer, and the master of a ship shall not allow any person to disembark without such consent.

The Ministry of Health, through the Sanitary Authority, says any person who contravenes, or fails or refuses to comply with any of these provisions will be fined or detained.

This advisory is subject to change.

    It is good to hear from you. I had my surgery on 10 March and am doing well. The surgery went well and I started outpatient Physical therapy 3 days later. Did some PT the same day as surgery. I am in some discomfort and that is to be expected. If all goes well I will graduate to a cane from a walker on Monday or Wednesday. That will be a big help. I go to PT 3 times a week with exercises at home on the alternate days. It sounds like the Grenada government is taking the appropriate precautions with this nasty virus, It is crazy here with supermarket shelves very empty. The stores are trying to keep up but some people are buying everything in site. The grand kids are doing some shopping for us and leaving the items on our deck so they don’t bring anything into the house. We get items for Ginny’s sister Madeline and the grand kids or us drop them off to her. No one is allowed into her building that does not live there. I get screened each time that I go to PT. Let us know how things are doing when you can.

    Check on this website, Grenada is still one of the few countries with NO COVID-19 cases. Everyone must do their best to keep it this way.

    That make perfect sense, if boats are coming from other areas or countries (with or without recorded infected population).
    Like everywhere else there should be a 2-3 week isolation periode before allowed to disembark – or just to go ashore in Grenada. Common sense.
    It would be fantastic if Grenada could avoid the Corona virus all together. And if the virus comes to Grenada eventually, that the small country are well prepared to reduce the impact.

    Totally agree with this decision especially as the people of Petite Martinique and Carriacou are so vulnerable.. Covid-19 is a very serious matter and the Greadian people have to be protected at all costs especially their coastline. It is not a harsh decision the locals have to be protected…the spread of Covid-19 is no joke but a very serious Global Pandemic and the Government has to do everything in its power to keep it AWAY FROM OUR SHORES AND ISLAND AND PROTECT ITS POPULATION!!!

This decision has been made by the Government of a Sovereign Country in the interest of it’s citizens, this in not a big joke.most of the Spread of this Virus has been by people who have been travelling just what these Boat owners have been doing, it would be nice if for whatever reason peopke op to criticise these decisios.

    … those who have a scheduled flight to their home country …

    Maybe those have extra costs. They absolutely have to accept that.

    Foreigners flights to their home country Indeed is not an important matter for the Grenadian community. Everybody who is guest in foreign countries has to risk that. In addition, local rules on that so far seem to be more effective than European or American rules.

    This seems overly harsh for live aboards who have been in Grenada more than a couple of weeks. What about those who have a scheduled flight to their home country. What are the prescribed proceedures for ordering and receiving supplies?

    Is this for a specific amount of time? Is it for all cruising yachts or ones that have arrived after a certain date?
