Homosexuality is illegal in Grenada and punishable by imprisonment.
This overstates Grenada’s law. Grenadian law criminalizes certain consensual same-sex sexual acts between men, not “homosexuality” in general.
Full reasoning
The claim is inaccurate because sexual orientation itself is not a criminal offense in Grenada. Authoritative sources describe Grenada’s law more narrowly: it criminalizes consensual same-sex sexual activity between men under colonial-era offenses such as “grossly indecent acts” and “unnatural connexion.” Human Dignity Trust’s Grenada legal profile states that only men are criminalized under this law. The U.S. Department of State likewise summarizes Grenadian law as criminalizing consensual same-sex sexual activities between men. So the article’s wording incorrectly broadens the law from specific male same-sex acts to “homosexuality” generally, which would also imply lesbian identity/conduct is illegal when the cited legal summaries say it is not.

Grenada’s official tourism guidance gives different operating hours for local buses: 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday.
Full reasoning
This operating-hours claim does not match current official visitor information. The Grenada Tourism Authority says local buses operate from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. from Monday to Saturday. That directly contradicts the article’s statement that they run “from about 8 AM to 8 PM.”
