NYCBeach Posted October 8, 2007 #1 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Is it possible to rent a bicycle at the pier in Grand Turk? The island looks small enough that it might be a fun waqy to get around. Has anyone done this? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinobja Posted October 9, 2007 #2 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I am also interested in the answer to this question. I have been told by several that it is too hot to bike around, but the island looks too small to rent a car and scooter can be dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlet4897 Posted November 5, 2007 #3 Share Posted November 5, 2007 It appears we all have the SAME question! I was thinking of the biking option. We'll be there in Feb. and I was told the weather is in the 80s. So that might be too hot. Not sure. I wish someone knew.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cable Posted December 7, 2007 #4 Share Posted December 7, 2007 We are also interested in renting bikes independent of the cruise ship excursion. I saw online that Tony's Car Rentals also rents bikes but they're located at the airport. Does anybody know if they have an outpost nearer to where the ships dock? Or is the airport close enough to walk to pick up the bikes there? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted December 7, 2007 #5 Share Posted December 7, 2007 http://www.tonyscarrental.com/ The airport isn't far from the pier, but I don't know how "walkable" it is. And there will be quite a bit of traffic due to excursions. Here's a map... http://www.turksandcaicostourism.com/content/root/pdf/grandturkmap.pdf The island is only 6 miles long, so you can see that the airport is fairly close. You could always email Tony's and ask if they have a shuttle from the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkletoes4445 Posted December 9, 2007 #6 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I don't know where the airport is on GT, but it's a perfect island to explore while on a bicycle. It's flat...and there's very little traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicki61 Posted December 20, 2007 #7 Share Posted December 20, 2007 There were no bikes with-in walking distance of the port. In fact while we were renting scoots, someone came up and asked where the bikes were and after being told, decided to rent scoots! The airport is a taxi ride, not a walk.

chong67 Posted December 1, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I am thinking of doing this. Has anyone rent a bicycle to ride around the island? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
