bus fare in Grand Cayman to Seven Mile Beach

[BeadedGoblets]

...getting varying info on this. can anyone who has recently been there tell me the rate in US Dollars?

[Ga webbs]

If I remember correctly we were there in May of this year and it was $2.50 per person. That's about half of what a taxi costs.

We just got home from a cruise there, it was $5 a person.

[BeadedGoblets]

perdido...that seems high for the bus. are you sure you weren't in a cab (picked up at the dock)?

[JJJSM]

i was there LAST week.. the bus fare is 2.50 per person.. :)

[BeadedGoblets]

that means a $5 bill (each way) for the two of us. i'll make sure i have that with me.

Where do you get the bus? Is it easy to find? How long to the Tiki bar/restaurant?

[Bonnie J.]

When you get off the tender walk to the left. The buses are not the BIG buses but small ones. You'll see them on the right side of the street behind some chain link fence. They are white. In Grand Caymman there are bus stops, often a covered bench. And it is $2.50 per person.

[BeadedGoblets]

that's new info for me! i thought we had to walk to the library to catch the $2.50 SMB bus.

[TurtleTagger]

The bus depot is back by the library now. They had temporarily moved to the lot near the Dairy Queen, but since returned to the library.

[JJJSM]

Yes-- they are by the library.. ask anyone-- they will point you to them

Thanks, I wanted to know this too!

At the pier, walk inland down either Shedden or Cardinall, whichever you come to first, and turn left at Edward St, and the bus depot is just past the corner of Dr. Roys Drive.

Thanks, EVERYONE, for all the helpful suggestions and information for SMB. You all made it sound so EASY. Looking forward to warmer weather (winter has started to hit the Minnesota area and I'm not liking it!).

After getting off the tender walk thru the shops to the main street Harbour/Church St. Across the street you'll see Diamonds International (surprise, surprise) and to the right is Fort Street. Walk up Fort St to Heroes Square (on your right). Cross street on the other side of Heroes Sq is Edward St. You'll see the Library across Edward and the bus station to the right (small vans). Catch Bus # 1 (yellow) or Bus #2 (lime green). Both travel the same route, just a small direction change way up in West Bay. Cost is $2.50 pp (no transfers). Typical route is Bus Station to Hell ($2.50) to send your favorite people a post card wishing they were there :D, Hell to 7-Mile, e.g., Tiki, Calico Jack's, Royal Palms, etc, ($2.50), 7-mile to tender pier ($2.50). These buses are easy to catch at Hell and 7-mile. They honk at you indicating they are available. Just wave them down and get in. If you don't know, GC drives on the left side so be careful crossing the streets, i.e., Look left!!

Thanks for the info - Will be in CG in another week and a bit and this'll probably be the way I go.

Look RIGHT as you step off the curb. That is the direction the traffic is coming from! :rolleyes:

 

Our hospital is quite nice and efficient but no one wants you to have to visit there. ;)
