Yasou Posted July 30, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Does anyone know if there are taxis available to take you to Governers Beach at the port. And cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mitsugirly Posted July 31, 2016 #2 Share Posted July 31, 2016 There will be taxi's at the port to take you anywhere you want. The problem with Governors Beach is that not many go there due to no food facilities or vendors. They do have bathrooms and showers. It's very secluded. So, if you get a taxi to drop you off, you would have to tell them what time to come get you to return to the ship. Unless you are willing to walk back, which is doable but you will have to give yourself enough time. I have a complete review in my signature line if you are interested in reading it. There's TONS of pictures included. But, we rented a golf cart right outside the port and went everywhere exploring on it and Governors just happens to be one of the places we went....and our favorite so far. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smileyone Posted August 2, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 2, 2016 In May, we paid $16 for 4 people to Governor's. We walked back to the ship afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USERBOYD66 Posted August 15, 2016 #6 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Mitsugirly, I read your review. Could you tell me more about the Conch Grave yard? Is it the same directions as Jack's Schack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conch grave yard is to the right once you get off the pier. Jacks Shack is to the left.....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What else would you like to know about Conch Grave yard? (As someone else posted, it's to the right as you are facing the beach and getting off the ship). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tryingtocruise Posted August 30, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Are there chairs and umbrellas available at Governor's Beach? If so, how much? Also, what's involved in renting a golf cart? I would feel better doing that going to the beach rather than hoping that a taxi driver remembers to pick us up at the beach at the end of day. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would feel better doing that going to the beach rather than hoping that a taxi driver remembers to pick us up at the beach at the end of day. TIA No chairs on anything. It's pretty much a deserted beach. No vendors, no food, no rentals of any kind. There's a bathroom, showers and water for sand on your feet. Renting a golf cart is as simple as going online and renting with the vendor (make a reservation), then simply walking outside the port when you get there and pick it up for the day. Super easy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaz Posted September 24, 2016 #11 Share Posted September 24, 2016 In May, we paid $16 for 4 people to Governor's. We walked back to the ship afterwards. When you walked back, did you use the road or were you able to cut back to the beach? Is it possible to walk down the beach from the pier and get to Governors Beach by cutting back to the road (maybe through Jack's Shack) and then to the beach? It's a tad farther than I've ever been on the beach. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting out to the road and then back down to the beach at Governors is not a short walk. Did it once ( never again ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
