If you are bringing your own clubs a taxi. If you are renting clubs there a taxi but you could take the #7 bus.

The club recommended Bermuda Island Taxi and their rate was over $5.00 a mile. Is that normal for Bermuda taxis? Thanks.

Taxi rates are regulated. There is a rate for 1-4 in the taxi and a higher rate for 5-7. There is a surcharge for Sunday and Holidays. 25% if you have 1-4 and 50% if you have 5-7. Those are the current rates. There are proposals to raise the fare. What date are you planning to golf?

For 1-4 it would be For a 1- to 4-passenger taxi: $7.90 USD for the first mile, $2.75 USD for each additional mile.  It is metered. You need cash. Plus tip about 15%   If you want to use a credit card you can use the Hitch Bermuda app. Using the app is about 15% more.

I would suggest trying to get a group together to share a taxi. Also inquire at guest services. Cruise staff or officers might be interested. 
 

FYI that time of year is whale watching season.

Our first Bermuda cruise is April 12-19.  Are whale watching tours available in the port area?  Don’t see any listed through NCL.

This thread is about getting from Hamilton to the Port Royal golf course.

I'd suggest that you start a separate thread asking about whale watching tours. Also a Google search for "whale watching tours in Bermuda " will give you the names of tour operators such as Island Tour Centre.

Check the edited version of my post where I give you the name of one tour operator and suggest a Google search to find others.
