DR CAVE BEACH TAXI RIDE

[Matlily]

Can anyone tell me the cost of the Taxi to and from port to Dr Cave beach? Thanks in advance.

We are docking in Montego Bay this morning and our plan is to taxi to Doctors Cave Beach to enjoy the day.  I’ll let you know the cab fare once we get back.

$7pp each way to Doctors Cave Beach. It’s a bus. No option for individual taxis inside the port. Didn’t see any outside once we left the gated port.

 

Our driver was Albert. Very nice older gentleman. When the bus - it’s like an 18-20 passenger, individual seats type bus - leaves the port, he picks up a tour guide.  She will offer a tour and shopping and beach, but we were able to say just the beach. We paid round trip with a pickup for 1:30p. He was waiting for us. 
if you decide to get your own taxi back, only certain taxis with red license plates can bring you back into the port.  The other taxis aren’t allowed inside. The have to drop you off by the road.

 

Hope this helps.  And the beach/water was beautiful.

Hi Kathuly, which port was this? Montego Bay, or Falmouth?

 

Thanks

Montego Bay - sorry I didn't get a notification to answer.  I know it's way past September!

Does anyone know the cost from Falmouth Jamaica and if you can just  take a taxi ?

Do you recall the name of the Taxi company ?

You will pay a little more, but we always email ahead and have a driver waiting for us. The same driver will pick you up at whatever time you tell him. They are very reputable, and we have used them before and after covid. This is from Montego Bay port. You walk out of the terminal and go left to walk out the gate. Be sure and bring your confirmation with you.

roughly how much was it per person?

[cwb348]

About $12/pp, but maybe it depends on how many in the car. There were 4 of us.
