spoiledkraut Posted January 2, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 2, 2009 We're thinking about going to sunset beach in Mobay. What would be the savest way to get there since the cruise ship doesn't offer this excursion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conwaycruiser Posted January 2, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 2, 2009 We took a taxi and it is very close to the port. I don't remember the price of the taxi but it wasn't much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's VERY CLOSE to the terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorrieB Posted January 2, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 2, 2009 If you take a private taxi, make sure the license tags are red. Government taxi. Also, don't be surprised if you are asked to buy drugs. Sort of a Jamaica thing. Just don't buy anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkportersat Posted January 2, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 2, 2009 We took a taxi from the cruise terminal. The resort is very close, literally a two minute ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the Conquest too!!!!! Where are you from in Oklahoma? We live in Tulsa. We also cruise on the Conquest. Loved Mobay!!!! I would also recommend the Appleton Rum Factory Tour. Very good. The ride to the factory is extremely exciting..... death defying almost!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolaAlive Posted January 2, 2009 #7 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I took a taxi there and walked back and NOBODY offered to sell me drugs. They did recently raise their prices to $60 pp, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebeljohn Posted January 2, 2009 #8 Share Posted January 2, 2009 They did recently raise their prices to $60 pp, I believe. Is there a time limit on the day pass? Our ship doesn't leave until 8pm.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkportersat Posted January 2, 2009 #9 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I have been twice, they never mentioned anything about a time limit. They have a website with an email on it, they respond back to questions quickly if you wanted to make sure. Is there a time limit on the day pass? Our ship doesn't leave until 8pm..........

It just makes it easy for us to drive down to Galverston and don't have to pay airfare. We're from Norman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstoncruisers2001 Posted January 2, 2009 #11 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Take the free shuttle from the ship to the terminal then catch a cab at the terminal. They might try and persuade you to go to another beach, but just say no thanks. Cab will drop you off right outside the gate at Sunset Beach. Plenty of cabs waiting to take you back. It was fun, enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolaAlive Posted January 2, 2009 #13 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Is there a time limit on the day pass? Our ship doesn't leave until 8pm.......... I'm sure there is. For example, the one in Ocho Rios is valid from 9am to 3:30pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewut Posted January 2, 2009 #14 Share Posted January 2, 2009 We had planned to go to Sunset Beach on our Dec. 7, 08 cruise. I saw on the Jamaica thread that they had raised their prices, so I called their 800 number. They quoted $80! I may have misunderstood them, but we didn't go there. In fact, all we did was get off, get our passports stamped, do a little shopping right at the pier, and get back on the Conquest. We had the slide to ourselves and played mini golf. The weather wasn't the best, and we didn't want to put out that kind of $$ for a chance of rain day. We had our DGD6 with us. Sewut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
