bling19572010 Posted March 19, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 19, 2013 What would a taxi cost for 2 adults to/from the pier to Church Valley Beach? Would this be the best beach to spend the day at in Antiqua? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debr Posted March 20, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 20, 2013 What would a taxi cost for 2 adults to/from the pier to Church Valley Beach? Would this be the best beach to spend the day at in Antiqua? Thank you! We were there the end of January and a taxi should cost $8 per person each way--don't pay more:D. Don't know about the best beach, but we love it:) Debr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare teacherman Posted March 20, 2013 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I believe that the taxi is $12 pp each way IF there are only 2 of you. If there are 3 or more people, then it is $8. Tell the dispatcher where you want to go and they generally put groups together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debr Posted March 20, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 20, 2013 You can also wait a few minutes until others arrive at the taxi area and they will fill a van for $8 per person. If there are just two of you and you want to go right away, it will cost more. We had three in our group and we paid $8 to go right away. A friend that wasn't ready to go when we were just joined a van that was filling up a little while later. Debr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean_Dreamer37 Posted March 26, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 26, 2013 We just returned from our cruise, and it would have cost us $16 per person each way (if it were just the two of us in the taxi), so the driver suggested we wait to have others join us for a cheaper price of $8 per person. Within minutes, two other couples joined us, so there were six of us, and we paid $8 per person. We all agreed to stay at Valley Church Beach for 3-1/2 hours, and the driver agreed to return for us at the specified time, to take us back to the ship port. It's a beautiful beach, with 'The Nest' restaurant/bar, showers, changing rooms, rest rooms and lots of good things going on. I'm glad we chose this beach, over Dickenson Bay, but it did get a little more crowded than I expected, but it wasn't too bad. Beach chair rentals were reasonable and we used a tree for shade, instead of renting an umbrella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanatravel Posted April 1, 2013 #6 Share Posted April 1, 2013 We were there a week ago. There were eight of us: $16 round trip per person. Our driver did return for us just a little bit later than scheduled but he had called first letting us know he was delayed. The beach is beautiful, the drinks weren't bad. Chairs were $5 each and an umbrella was $10. Rest rooms were fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmack0034 Posted April 24, 2013 #8 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Just there last week. Paid 20 each way for 4. Ask for Bernie the cabbie..made our trip to the beach very enjoyable. We did encounter two drivers practically fighting over our business though in port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
