Grenada in March: Weather, Crowds & What to Expect

St. George’s & West Coast (Grand Anse, Point Salines)

March finds temperatures edging up but humidity remains comfortable thanks to the trades; afternoons can be hot on the sand. Carnival preparations begin to simmer in St. George’s later in the month, and small hotels fill with early visitors; evening breezes make outdoor dining pleasant. Boat trips to nearby reefs run well but watch for occasional easterly swells that can make some rides choppier.

Northern & Atlantic Coast (Levera, Sauteurs, Levera National Park)

March often delivers steady easterly winds and gradually warming days; the Atlantic side begins to lose its winter sharpness. Sauteurs and nearby viewpoints are good for whale-watch hopefuls and for long coastal hikes that remain largely dry-Afternoons can still kick up strong sun and spray. Travelers should wear layered clothing for changing breezes and hydrate well on exposed headlands.

Central Highlands & Grand Etang (Grand Etang Forest Reserve, Mount St. Catherine)

March brings warming days but the mountain air remains refreshing compared with the coast; mid-day sun can be strong so sun protection still matters. Occasional light showers begin to return late month, adding moisture and enhancing the forest scent around Grand Etang. Trails can become sticky after rains, so expect muddier sections and bring gaiters if you plan longer treks.

Carriacou & Petite Martinique (Sandy Bay, Hillsborough)

March brings slightly warmer days while the trades continue to moderate humidity-perfect conditions for the Carriacou Regatta atmosphere if events are scheduled in the spring. Beaches are pleasant and small-boat trips between cays run well in the morning; afternoons may see gustier winds. Carry reef shoes for rocky cove landings and a sun hat for open-deck charters.
