BND Posted July 11, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 11, 2015 The water taxis are used by locals to commute and get to school, etc. They're not going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jollyjones Posted July 11, 2015 #7 Share Posted July 11, 2015 What the OP is calling 'water taxis' is actually the government run ferry service. A while ago there was some muttering about someone setting up a private water taxi service but I never heard that it came to anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surf SUP at Daniel's Head recently posted on the FB page that they have water taxi service between Dockyard and their beach- this is the only reference I can find regarding it.... Wondering if it's ever got off the ground?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it was two years ago and I never saw any postings about it here. http://bernews.com/2013/05/captain-ashley-simmons-launches-water-taxi/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calmpets Posted July 12, 2015 #10 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Anyone know how you find the water taxi instead of the ferry once you're at the dockyard? It sounds like a neat alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartbda Posted July 12, 2015 #11 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Like I posted, there has been nothing said about anyone using it which leads me to believe the service didn't "fly". However, I've been known to be wrong.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
