Default taxi rate to vendor area (market place)

Would anyone know how far the vendors are from Havensight pier? Taxi rate, how long it would take to get there? I believe the vendors are located near Main Street. Thank you!

Vendors Plaza is located just next to Emancipation Park, very close to Main Street. It's about 1.4 miles from Havensight. $4 pp, ow for a taxi or takes about 25 minutes to walk. If you walk go through Yacht Haven Grande when leaving Havensight rather than around it, makes the walk a little more scenic as the marina area is landscaped, has shops, nice view of marina and ships. After the marina your walk is along a sidewalk to town - the sidewalk is next to the water/harbor and a main road, no shade, flat.

There is a shuttle within Havensight Shopping area that loops around the buildings in the complex only.

The folks yelling out "Back to the Ship" are taxis. It is $4 pp, ow from Havensight to downtown for taxi.
