Nov 11 - Remembrance Day Holiday

How will this holiday affect our visit? We will be on the Legend of the Seas staying overnight Nov 11-12. Will shops still be open? Activities at the Dockyard, ferry, buses, etc?

Here is a link with info :

You will already be on the winter ferry schedule, so I don't know how it will affect the schedule...probably the Sunday schedule.

Bus should be on Sunday schedule also.

Many taxis do not operate

Most restaurants are closed

Many tour operator are closed

But there is a parade in St-George in honor of the veterans...that might be worth the visit...

Thanks, I have seen that website. I am hoping a local will be able to tell which shops, etc might be open.

Is there any businesses in particular you're asking about?

Anyone who knows about the shuttle to Horseshoe Bay Beach that day?

Hi,

I would not count on it :(

It might be available....but I would have a plan "B" so sure. It's a holiday, Sunday schedule, you are the only ship at the Dockyard, it's November ( beach goers won't be as many ), sunset is around 5:20pm... I do not think the demand will be high enough to justify the shuttle on a holiday...

If you are involved on your roll call and/or plan on going to your M&G, I would ask around and plan to share a taxi (up to 4 passengers is about 43$ each way :eek: ) or rely on the regular #7 bus with limited schedule ( earliest bus is 10:50am and latest will be around 5pm at Horseshoe )

Sharing a cab at about 22$ ( round trip ) per passengers for a group of 4 is probably the best way to go if you want to enjoy a full day at the beach...

Thank you, then we use the Cruise lines tour instead!
