Where is the bus stop?

[nyctravelerwithkids]

Hi,

 

Can someone please explain where is the stop of the bus that can take you to one of many Seven Mile Beach beaches? Is it close to the port?

What king of payment does the driver accept? Is it coins only?

 

Thank you.

It's right across from the tender dock area! $2.50 pp....and just ask the driver where they're going. It''s super easy.

Is it coins only?

The main bus depot is next to the library on Edward Street. Edward Street runs parallel to the waterfront, a couple short blocks inland.

 

Generally US currency coins are not accepted. US$ bills or Cayman currency is accepted. Fare is CI$2 = US$2.50 per person to the beach by route bus. Drivers likely will not be able to provide change in US$. Pay when you are getting off the bus at your destination.

 

There are taxis lined up right at the port, but they charge more (US$5 or more per person) and tend to wait until they are full before departing.

 

Taxis and route buses look similar. Most are Toyota HiAce vans. Route buses have a circular decal with a number indicating the route. Route #1 or #2 go past Seven Mile Beach.

From the cruise port, exit to the LEFT side if it's open, or exit and walk along the main road to the left. There is a plaza on the port side of the road that has a Tortuga Rum Shop store. In front of that is a stop light with a crosswalk that takes you to Front Street. Cross the street and walk away from the port down Front Street on the right hand side. You'll see a coffee shop at the next corner on the right (Cafe del Sol). There's a little park (Hero's Square) and then the library. The buses are to the right of the library.

 

They have coloured circles in the window with a # and 'WB' for 'West Bay'. #1 WB has a yellow circle. #2 WB has a green circle. Either of those will take you up Seven Mile. When in doubt, just ask. Coming back just flag down a bus going back towards the port. Pay the driver when you leave the bus.
