Coral World - Transportion

We are doing the Sea Trek at Coral World. Our trek is at 2pm for 1 hr, does this allow us enough time to get back to the ship for 4:30pm as we leave at 5pm.

What is the cost from Havensight to Coral World by cab, please

Thanks,

Joanne

about 9.00 per person for taxi

Does anyone know if kids of a certain age ride free? We have 2 adults, a 5 year old and a 2 year old. $36 each way is a little steep. That would be more than it would cost to get into the park!

We have been on two cruises and our biggest expense off the ship has been taxis.

No kidding! But it would only be $50 to get into Coral world for us, I'm not gonna spend $72 just getting there lol. If the baby can't ride free we'll probably just skip it and hang on the ship.

Just wonder if you could share your experience of Sea Treking @ Coral World as I am thinking to do it too. Thanks. :)

We did not do Sea Trek, but we did Coral World. It was fun, but very small. We did everything in about 2 hours. We went to the beach right next door for another hour and a half, til our arranged pick up time, and the beach was lovely. Fish everywhere, and shallow enough to walk out pretty far.

I would say since we ended up getting an excursion that included transportation, it was worth it, but I would NOT have wanted to spend the $72 to get there and back.

Sea Trek may make a difference. We saw some other people doing it, and it looked interesting, but not for us, especially with the kids.

A map of the park is available on their website so you can see what all the exhibits are. We also got to meet a sea lion, that was neat. But the map makes it look semi big, it's not. You can see the back from the front.

Everyone pays the taxi fare regardless of age.

Four weeks ago the taxi from Coral World/Coki Beach to Havensite was $10/pp. Same price for kids.

It costs $10 pp to get to Coral World from the port?

Each way OR both ways please?

Thanks.

Cab is $10 per person one way from ship to Coral World/Coki Beach.

The charge for kids is not consistent. Some will charge and some wont. you can ask but I would assume they will charge and hope they don't.

I read that the "red hook" bus has a stop near the port and Coral World. Has anyone had experience taking the bus?

The bus route is the same as the safari route. You would have to walk about 1/2 mile from the drop off in Smith Bay.

The bus route is not the same as the safari route. Besides, the bus only runs every 2 hours M-F, and may not run on local holidays.

The bus goes on a different road? They both drop off at the corner in Smith Bay. They both go around the east end. Not sure how the routes can differ.

does the excursion for Sea Trek thru Carnival include transportation? That might be a cheaper way of going.

We did the Helmet Dive on two cruises. Everyone loved it and it included transportation and admittance.

O2B, there are several bus routes, but most go near the public housing whereas safaris only go by the ones in town. Yes, the bus goes the same road as safari near Coki, but the route is longer before getting to that road. If buses used same route as safari, no need for buses.

Ms 411: Yes, there are different bus routes. But if they get on either a bus or safari to the east end, they are still going to drop off at the same place and walk that last section... As you know, the safari system started because there was no reliable bus service. It would be nice to see them police the safaris so that the buses could actually be the public transportation system.

Reliable public transportation is not a U.S. concept, and St Thomas is a U.S. Virgin Island.
