debcruising Posted November 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 13, 2017 In the Turks & Caicos, where HAL docks, do they have Bicycle Carriages available that pedal people down the long pier? (I've just seen photos and do remember them in Amber Cove, DR.) That little beach right by the dock is my favorite spot on the entire cruise. Just seeing the ship from the shore is almost heaven. It's just I still have limited walking due to a total knee replacement. Thanks in advance for the replies and Happy Travels! Link to post Share on other sites
SusieKay Posted November 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted November 13, 2017 We have been there multiple times ( last in March of this year) and have never seen them in Grand Turk. We thought them great in Amber Cove. That pier seemed incredibly long on the brutally hot day were there. No charge just "tip whatever you think it is worth" Best $10 we spent on the cruise!

Keith1010 Posted November 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 13, 2017 That's correct. Have not seen them. Keith Link to post Share on other sites
OCruisers Posted November 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted November 13, 2017 We've been to Grand Turk many times and have not seen any pedicabs BUT they are certainly needed! Link to post Share on other sites
Krazy Kruizers Posted November 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted November 13, 2017 We have never seen them on Grand Turk. And I surely would need one if we get back there. We have had them in other ports and loved them. Link to post Share on other sites

debcruising Posted November 14, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Thanks everyone for the confirmation, sad at it is. Looks like I will need to pace myself as my beach lounger calls to me! On the upside, the cruise calls on Amber Cove the next day! Happy Travels, fellow cruisers! Link to post Share on other sites

realnurse2 Posted November 14, 2017 #9 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I can't remember there being any on the dock when I was there last winter. Check with the port ambassador before you leave the ship. They might be able to give some suggestions. Link to post Share on other sites
TitanSMES Posted February 23, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 23, 2018 What do you typically tip the cyclist for hauling you around. I recently had knee replacements and walking long distances is still not a fun filled experience. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to post Share on other sites
ithaca gal Posted February 24, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 24, 2018 The beach at the end of the dock will be a great carrot! ;) Link to post Share on other sites
Keith1010 Posted February 24, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 24, 2018 The beach at the pier is absolutely beautiful. Keith Link to post Share on other sites
