carlissaandisaacsmommy Posted March 5, 2015 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2015 We leave on Saturday to board the Carnival Breeze. We have planned to just ride the "bus" to seven mile beach, but have never done this before. 1. Can you give me super detailed directions on how to get to the buses? Give as many details as you can!! My husband gets duet nervous when I don't know where I'm going! 2. Where should we have the driver let us off at 7 mile beach? There are 6 of us - 4 adults, 2 kids ages 8 and 2. Not drinkers. Just want white, soft sand and shallow, calm water. Clean restrooms and maybe some good food. 3. How much will we pay for bus?

cb at sea Posted March 5, 2015 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) Cross the street from the tender dock...it's about 1 block further....you'll see the bus/vans! This is really easy! They will stop anywhere you want...Seagrape beach is nice...restrooms, watersport rentals, food/drink and lounger rentals are right there! The bus is $2.50 pp... When you leave, simply walk up to the road, and the next bus will stop! Edited March 5, 2015 by cb at sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The buses are a couple of blocks from the port area, just ask there for directions...the depot is beside the library. I'd suggest heading for Public Beach, since it has a playground as well as the usual amenities. You won't save much by taking the bus instead of a taxi. Bus is $2.50 pp each way, taxi is $4-6 pp each way. Taxis will look like large vans (so do the buses, for that matter) and will be just outside the gates of the port area, so no worries about finding them. You could always taxi there, and bus back. To get a bus along the road by the beach, just stand at the edge of the road and wave as it approaches. They'll stop and ask you if you want a ride. You'll ideally need exact change (for the group) for either form of transport to avoid getting change in Cayman dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
