Seven Mile Beach Grand Cayman | How to get to Seven Mile Beach Grand Cayman from a Cruise Ship

[@Indoorsy_Dog_Person]

Thank you Russell! Just returned from Grand Cayman and saved money from taking the bus because of your video.

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

@Darena Dorsey That's great. Glad it helped. its easy to get around once you knew how. but only going there one time on a cruise it can be hard to figure out the way to get some where. Thanks for commenting.

[@domicar.smiles]

Loved when you said 'This is just a normal street here, so let's look for cars'. Back to the basics 🤣🤣

[@TopOyster]

Thank you, this is the most useful grand cayman cruise visitor video on KZbin

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

Wow, Thanks

[@samquinn6427]

Thanks for the tip for easy cheap pubic bus to the beach. Our friends paid $140 each for a cruise package that gave them transportation, lunch, WIFI and a chair to the same beach. My understanding is Grand Cayman beaches are all public so if you have a towel or and place it on the sand, you should be good. However, if you were to sit on a private chair set up by one of the resort, they may ask you to leave. Cheer!

[@brandionatuesday9411]

Thank you so much for this video. Headed there in 2 days!!!! Your video has given us a plan to go to 7 mile beach 🏝

Thanks for this video! I’m going to land in Grand Cayman tomorrow.

[@VirginiaFruitGrower]

Me too. Are you on the Sunrise?

[@kt1122]

@@VirginiaFruitGrower It was sunny and very hot! I followed what the video said, and nearly all the spots were the same. Only thing that really changed I noticed was that the bicycle rental shop is now Tortuga, a liquor store. 😂 This video really helped me! I want to add that the bus ride was $2.50 USD for me to get back! The driver gave me two coins back in Cayman currency since I gave her $3. Don’t know if this price changed for anyone but mine was this price.

[@VirginiaFruitGrower]

@@kt1122 yes we went to the little bus stop across the street and immediately caught a bus back to the bus station for $2.50. Then you basically walk 2 minutes to the port entrance to the boat tender. Easy peasy. Were you on the Sunrise?

[@shokkdog]

Great free option to get to the beach!

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

It really is!

[@jeanettebleskie137]

I assume there is a charge for the chairs, do you know how much? Is there someplace nearby you can get food?

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Great info! Thank you!

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

Glad it was helpful!

[@SOLDOZER]

The shop keepers in Georgetown all say the same thing about cruise ship passengers. "They buy nothing and shoplift".

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

hehehehehe. Interesting. i think there being a bit over the top, but like anywhere these things can happen.

[@SOLDOZER]

@@ILikeCruiseShips Probably an exaggeration on the thefts, but I do know they're cheap and never buy much. I think the cruise lines own most of them anyways.

[@BloggingTrucker]

I always watch your KZbin ..videos till the end....I see you have curtains on your bunks in your CABIN...😁😁

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

Thanks for watching the whole way through.

[@allent1034]

Great job thank you. I assume you just paid the bus driver himself. Do you pay before you get on? Where there public restrooms at Public Beach? Did the chairs cost to rent?

[@allent1034]

I can answer my own question since I went there. You pay the bus driver when you get to your stop. I don't know about Public Beach, we went to Cemetery Beach. It was nice. No restrooms or chairs though.

[@EZ2CRUISE]

Great Video. It would have been nice to see the video back.

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

Noted!

[@justcruisinmom1682]

Thanks again for a great way to save video. Do we tip public bus drivers? What resort has a all inclusive package on seven mile beach or is it better to just stroll the beach and go to there bars? Looking forward to a video on those topics😊🏖😍

[@SOLDOZER]

Theres no all inclusive places and no bars. Its Grand Cayman, not Cancun.

[@samuelcollins1331]

@@SOLDOZER WRONG!!! There is Calico Jacks Bar about half the way up and down Seven Mile Beach!! I do NOT know if it has reopened since the Hurricane AND the lifting of most of the Covid19 restrictions. Let’s hope it returns to its former fun loving establishment🙏😎😎

[@ecwilliams21]

I’m sorry if I missed it, is there an advantage to traveling to the beach by public bus versus the taxi/cab service right off port? Newbie here 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

@E Williams Advanyages .... well for me it's a bit cheaper. Especially if there might be a few of you. In Grand Cayman the buses run very frequently, so mo worries catching one back and forward. You get a little more of the local culture when you catch the bus. Hmmm. For me, my dad was a bus driver most of his life so I grew up catching them.

[@ecwilliams21]

that’s perfect! There is a small group of us. Thank you so much!

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

@E Williams It might be easier to get off and get a cab if your groups undecided what to do. It's not any quicker getting there though. As it's the same roads back and forth.

[@capeman10]

Dude I never give a thumbs up, 158 is me, great job on the video.

[@gregjackman4963]

Hey man! Just watched a couple of your videos on the Cayman Islands (getting to 7 mile and Royal Palms). My wife and my sister have our elderly moms on a cruise right now and are landing in George Town tomorrow. It actually looks like the Royal Palms is permanently closed but im wondering if there are ANY amenities at the public access beaches. The moms will undoubtedly need the basics, like a bathroom, and expect wife and sis will want drinks! Lol Any insight you can provide (in ridiculously short time) would be greatly appreciated. TIA

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

I would highly recommend they take a taxi (there usually mini buses or Toyota minivans) to the beach, they can get them right by the pier where they ill get off the tenders (the boats that bring them too and from the ship at anchor) plus they can arrange for them to get back to the pier as well later in the day. get them to double and triple check the back onboard time for the ship. don't use their phones for time keeping, as it might have changed if there is time zone changes. They have a Margaritaville resort on seven mile beach, its a bit closer to the pier than the video i did getting to the public beach. You might be able to look it up at your end. I literally was going to go there the following week after making this video, not sure why i didn't go in the end. Russell.

[@BK1127]

How often do the tenders go back and forth from the cruise ship?

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

The Water Shittles run about every 10 or 15 minutes. Sometimes even faster if they fill up quicker. It's a very short 5 to 7 minute ride from the ship to pier.

[@BK1127]

[@PaventiRealEstate]

Great videos!!! Quick question... how often do the buses come by for the RETURN back to the cruise port?

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

That road is a popular road leading back to town so they pass probably every 10 or so minutes. You just wait and flag one down

[@dothedeedee]

Hi. We're about to head to Grand Cayman next week. Would you say that getting to the beach is still the same, as far as using the city bus? Any updates? Does anyone reading this have any info? Thanks in advance!

[@dothedeedee]

Also, we are hoping to find a part of the beach that has a restaurant/landmark/hotel that offers services to the public. Like a restaurant there, bathrooms, a bar. ???? Please advice...need a good stop!

[@irinamos]

Thanks for the great video! How much time did it take to walk from the port to the bus? Also, does anybody know what the taxi drivers charge for the ride from the port to the beach?

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

Once you're off the tender boats, its less then 10 minutes' walk. the key is to not get distracted by the many small shops right there and head straight out and cross the street in the direction of the bus station. So, you can maximize your time at the beach. Russell.

[@irinamos]

@@ILikeCruiseShips Thanks, Russel! Do you know the cost of taxi, by chance?

[@annetteflores]

Where did you get the bus to get back to the ship?

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

Basically any where in the main road you can catch the bus as it drives past. You just need to wave it down. The public buses are very clearly marked.

[@SOLDOZER]

Theres bus stops but will often honk at people walking to see if they want a ride. Just flag one down when you see them.

[@katiavandam8435]

Where else do these public buses go beside the beach?

[@ILikeCruiseShips]

you could literally use them to go around the entire island. you would really need to know where you would want to go ahead of time though. but you could goto the Cayman Turtle farm. or perhaps a different beach. Russell :)

can we walk to the beach from the ship?

There isnt really any kind of beaches close by with in a 15 to 20 minute walk. It's much easier to get a shared taxi or the public bus to the beaches. It's also much faster to get there once your off the ship. Lots of people are always heading to the same places to share with as well.
