Bobnjoyce Posted November 13, 2005 #2 Share Posted November 13, 2005 We were there last week. We went to So. Frigate beach, about a 12 minute cab ride ($14). It was isolated and uncrowded), but had several small rustic beach bars with chairs and umbrellas (2 for $10). There was some construction nearby (building a dolphin encounter). The beach was sandy and there was a small reef a little way out. Others reported good snorkelling. Overall, the beach was fine, but not world-class. We weren't disappointed, but will try another beach next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowcat Posted November 15, 2005 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Bobnjoyce- Was the $14 for the cab ride to S. Frigate Bay the total price for two people RT? Was there any feedback from people who went to S. Friar's Bay? (I think they are two separate beaches if I don't have my wires crossed.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambiz Posted November 18, 2005 #7 Share Posted November 18, 2005 South Frigate Bay Beach is the closest to Port Zante. It's US$10 for 1 to 4 persons and $7 per person for 5 or more persons. South Friars Bay is another beach that is not far away. By taxi it's $16 for 1 - 4 persons. Amicia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laceyjane Posted February 13, 2006 #10 Share Posted February 13, 2006 I thought there was Mr. X restaurant and bar at South Frigate Bay. Is there not a bathroom in Mr. X's? Is the "one porta potty with no door" you speak off inside Mr. X's? We have been to Turtle Beach it was just ok-we enjoyed seeing the pig, no monkeys the day we were there, tons of sea weed. Want to try S. Frigate this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambiz Posted February 14, 2006 #11 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Mr X Shiggidy Shack Bar and restaurant is at South Frigate Bay beach. THere are bathroom facilities at Mr X. You may to snorkel by the rocks off to the left of Mr X (under the hill). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
