Possible to see Welchman hall Gully and Catamaran?

[5MNtravelbugs]

Is it possible, being in Barbados from 8am til 5pm to tour the Welchman Hall Gully and also take a catamaran to see the turtles and snorkel? Is there a tour service that could accommodate both? Also, how long of a taxi ride is it from port to the gully? Thank You! Trying to set tour for larger group. (6-10 people)

Can't answer all your queries but..

the ride from the Port to Welchman Hall Gully is about 1/2 hour, possibly a bit less if little traffic.

You should see a fair chunk of the island as you make you way up to the highlands.

 

I'm fairly sure it opens to the public at 9 a.m.

so get going off the ship and start the road journey by about 8:30

and it should work well.

will show you the Gully's Nutmeg Grove..

 

Walking the gully to its end and then back to the beginning (that's how it's done)

will take you maybe 1-1.5 hrs. depending on if you stop and stare -or not.

Check some of the catamaran tours - some companies offer a 3-hour excursion...

 

Or you can do Carlisle Bay on your own and swim out to them. Check out this thread:
