What is there to do near tender port?

[shell52602]

My hubby and I are not going on any excursions and just wondered if anyone could give us some advice on where to eat, shop, etc. near the port? Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Thanks!

You will tender right into town. Lot's of shopping , restaurant, things like that. You can hop on an island tour right there and there will be a lot of tour vendors waiting for you, but if you're not interested in touring, plenty to do in town. You can also easily walk to the public beaches and swim, sun and snorkle right there.

there is a nice restaurant within walking distance from tender dock called the Paradise Rest. good food, cheap drinks (for Cayman). but nice and clean, you can also snorkle right there if you want to.

 

to get to the pardise just walk to the right, you will be able to see it from the ship. greenish/blue little building right on the water

 

also visit the Guy harvey shop, he is always in the shop if he is home.

Of Course Margaritaville is always an experience! We usually have a blast there, but we like to party and the wildness of the place. They have a pool there as well. Neat place (but can be expensive) to hang out.

What are the price ranges of the food at the paradise? We will be on a limited budget because we are planning alot the next day in Cozumel. Thanks everyone! I sure appreciate all these responses!:)

Easily. The map linked to here - http://www.caymangoodtaste.com/restaurants_detail.asp?restaurantID=113 - shows both the harbor and the restaurant that's part of the store.

The tenders are free...you just board following the instructions of your cruiseline. (Assuming that by "tenders" you mean the small boat "shuttle service" between the ship and land.)

 

Once you disembark the tender, the main downtown area is right there. There's plenty of shopping, restaurants, some sightseeing and snorkeling, etc. within easy walking distance. You don't need a taxi unless you want to go to the beach, which is about a $4-6 per person taxi ride from the port area.

How much do you tip the taxi driver for a ride to Royal Palms or Sea Grape?
