Sockets in Guadeloupe
Guadeloupe uses Type C and E plugs and sockets.
Type C
Type C sockets have two round pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they take a slimmer plug without an earth pin or fuse.
Type E
Type E sockets have two round pins and a hole for the socket’s earth pin. UK Type G plugs do not fit into Type E sockets.
Recommended Travel Adaptor for Guadeloupe
We’ve taken the time to research and test different adaptors on real journeys. Safety and reliability were our top priorities. The adaptor below is the one we recommend.
Didn’t pack an adaptor? You can still grab one when you arrive. Still, it’s better to bring your own than risk paying too much for something unreliable.
Guadeloupe is often combined with trips to Martinique and Dominica. It’s smart to check those pages too — island-to-island standards can vary.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
You don’t need to worry about a converter in Guadeloupe; the voltage is virtually identical to what we use in the UK.
It’s worth checking your device’s voltage rating first. A label showing ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ means it’ll work abroad without a converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
