Thanks Aplmac!

 

I think we'll check out Accra/Rockley.

 

You say it's close to the ship. Can we take a taxi there? ===> Yes.

 

I believe you also said (in another thread) that there are facilities there and food/drinks?

Accra is cool enough -even for you, CD

 

Yes, a taxi from the Port to Accra/Rockley Beach should take no longer than 15 mins.

(although I'm not sure about what the fare would be)

 

..and yes, there's food and drink, even some shopping nearby

Chefette fast-food across the street

(with the City-bound bus stop in between)

where they make good Pizza and ROTI..so you won't starve or dehydrate, trust me! :D

 

We get very few complaints about 'Accra' as we call it.

Tell your driver to take you to the beach

- not to the hotel by that name(Accra)....properly it's Rockley Beach

but locals have always referred to the beach by the name of the hotel(don't ask)

 

This is one place where getting back to Bridgetown by bus is easy,

if you care to do 'the adventurous thing' with local flavour -and rocking music :eek:

How do you get to the bus from where the cruise ships dock and any idea how much the fare would be?

You'd be well advised to taxi it there (to save time)

and bus it back to Bridgetown and your ship.

 

Bus fares -all over the island- are Bds.$1.50 per person = 75cents U.S.currency

Aplmac...great pic's. I just tried posting a test picture in another forum and it only let me post a thumbnail. Could you give me some pointers on posting at or near the size of your picture's.

 

I'm sailing 1/11 and would like to post some picture's with my daily report.

 

Thanks...CeMor

These large size photos of mine

are linked to already-established stashes of photos I have

at either the Cruisecritic.com Photo Gallery

or at my Photobucket account.

 

That's the trick -to have biggies posted up somewhere already

and these are just links to them.
