Facts at a Glance
Population
Grenada's population numbers about 102,000, comprising citizens of African, East Indian, and European descent. The largest portion of the population, about 75%, is of African descent.
Political System
The tri-island state remains within the British Commonwealth as an independent nation and the Governor General represents Her Majesty the Queen. There is a 13-member Senate and a House of Representatives with a Speaker and fifteen members, each representing a constituency.
Religion
There is a good representation of all the major religions in most towns. Roman Catholics account for 64% of the population, Anglican 22%, Methodist 3% and Seventh Day Adventists 3%.
Language

Currency
The Eastern Caribbean Dollar, linked to the US Dollar, is the local currency. Banks will exchange EC$2.67 for US$1.00 cash, and EC$2.68 for US$1.00 in travellers cheques. It is advisable to exchange currency at the banks, as the most favorable exchange rates may not be obtained elsewhere.
Visa and Documents
A valid passport and return or onward ticket is required. However, proof of citizenship bearing a photograph is acceptable from British and Canadian citizens, if accompanied with a copy of your birth certificate. Visas are not required from citizens of USA, Canada, United Kingdom and its dependencies, British Commonwealth countries, Caribbean countries (except Cuba), European Community countries and their dependencies, Norway, Japan, and Israel. Commonwealth of Independent States such as Russia and the Ukraine and the Baltic States such as Estonia and Latvia, and other eastern European countries such as Hungary, Romania and Slovenia are required to purchase a tourist visa on arrival in Grenada.
