Current Travel Situation
Grenada to Iceland: What You Need to Know
Iceland is a member of the Schengen Area and the European Economic Area (EEA) but not the EU. It extends visa-free access to Commonwealth Caribbean citizens including Grenada under the Schengen accord. Iceland is renowned for its volcanic landscapes, Northern Lights, hot springs, and the Midnight Sun. As a small island nation itself, Iceland shares some geographic and cultural parallels with Caribbean islands, and its tourism-based economy resonates with Grenada own development model.
How to Get There
Icelandair offers direct flights from New York and Boston, but no direct service from Grenada (GND). Fly via Barbados or Trinidad to London or New York, then Icelandair to Keflavik (KEF). Journey time: 20 to 28 hours. Within Iceland, renting a 4x4 is the best way to explore the Ring Road and Highland tracks.
Money & Banking
Iceland uses the Icelandic Krona (ISK). Cards are accepted everywhere, including petrol stations and hiking hut checkpoints. ATMs are available in Reykjavik and major towns. Iceland is one of the most expensive countries in Europe: daily budget USD 180 to 280. Tipping is not traditional but is appreciated.
Practical Tips
Keflavik Airport (KEF) is 50 km from Reykjavik; take the Flybus or rent a car. Iceland is expensive: budget carefully. The Golden Circle and South Coast are best done by rental car or guided tour. Weather can change rapidly, so pack layers even in summer. Emergency: 112.
