ALLY17 Posted March 10, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Reading all the posts about construction and delays with traffic has me a little concerned.. For those that have been recently, do you think it's possible to take the bus to maho, stay for a little to see the planes and then cab it to orient? We dock at 7am and leave at 4pm.

Where abouts is the construction going on? Maho is better around noon. Do you have your heart set on Orient? Mullet the beach to Maho is a very nice beach and you avoid a lot of time in a car with this combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite sure where but I've heard it could take up to 2 hours to get back on a terrible day from orient beach when it's normally only 30 minutes! I will look into mullet! Thank you so much!

rdsxgrl28 Posted March 11, 2016 #4 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Right now unless they settle the dispute at Orient if your cruise is soon I would bet no way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The east side of the island where Orient is generally does not have those same issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamepie22 Posted March 11, 2016 #7 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Hello, we have just come back from the Caribbean and we went to Mullet beach first but took a taxi for $8 pp each way only because 5 ships in and thought it would be easiest. Mullet is a lovely beach, if you like snorkling the left hand side by the rocks was great. You can hire snorkel gear on the beach. You can walk around the road to Maho and takes about 10 mins. There was a delay driving over and took nearly 1 HR but only 35 mins coming back even though there was a car accident, fortunately we could drive around this by using a driveway. But we did leave by 1.30 so as to not be caught up in traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
