Official yacht-only Port of Entry on Grenada’s south coast and a listed outward yacht-clearance location. Send the yacht, crew, route and timing details for coordinated local clearance assistance.
Prickly Bay combines an established yacht anchorage and marina environment with a clearance arrangement that depends on the intended movement. Local assistance can coordinate the yacht’s ETA, departure or proposed arrival with the appropriate on-site authority arrangement.
Prickly Bay is an official Port of Entry for yachts only and is specifically listed for outward clearance. Local assistance can coordinate departure formalities around Spice Island Marine, the yacht’s anchorage or marina plans and intended timing.
The yacht registration, passports, crew/passenger lists, previous-port clearance and ship's declarations can be reviewed before formalities begin.
Reef, shoaling and anchoring restrictions affect the local harbour context. A local agent can coordinate the clearance arrangement while the captain plans the yacht’s safe berth or anchorage separately.
Prepare the applicable records before arrival or departure.
Prickly Bay is a south-coast yacht anchorage and marina area with a more nuanced clearance role than Grenada’s routine inbound points.
