You will find that the average price of petrol is 1.60 € ($1.81) per liter and 6.40 € ($7.24) per gallon when you rent a car in Guadeloupe.

There are several petrol stations along the island's main routes, Basse Terre and Grande Terre, that mainly offer full-service. Large petrol stations accept credit cards; however, smaller vendors do not.
