Visa & Entry

US passport holders enter Guadeloupe visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Guadeloupe is an overseas department of France, and US citizens benefit from the same visa-free access that applies to metropolitan France. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure. Guadeloupe is not part of the Schengen area, so time spent here does not count against your Schengen 90-day limit. At Pointe-à-Pitre Le Raizet Airport (PTP), immigration stamps your passport.

French law applies in Guadeloupe. The archipelago consists of two main islands (Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre) connected by a short bridge, plus the smaller islands of Les Saintes, Marie-Galante, and La Désirade. Ferries from Pointe-à-Pitre reach Les Saintes in about 1 hour and Marie-Galante in about 45 minutes on L'Express des Îles. Basse-Terre has La Soufrière volcano (1,467m) and tropical rainforest. Grande-Terre has the beaches and resort areas.

Direct flights from Miami (MIA) to Guadeloupe run about 3 hours 30 minutes on American Airlines. JetBlue operates seasonal service from New York JFK. Air France and Air Caraïbes connect through Paris Orly (about 8 hours 30 minutes). Guadeloupe uses the euro, trading at roughly $1.08 per EUR 1. Card payments work at most businesses. ATMs are common. Prices reflect French standards: a restaurant meal runs EUR 15 to EUR 30 ($16 to $32). Car rental is the best way to explore both islands, starting at EUR 25 per day. Driving is on the right. French is the primary language; English is spoken at tourist-facing businesses.
