Is there bus service on Grand Cayman — what about taxis?
Taxis are available, particularly at the airport, but cab fare tends to be quite high priced and phoning for one is unreliable. At about US$30 fare from the airport to the Inn (one way), renting a car for the whole day could cost you considerably less (during low season — and a dollar or two more during high season)). Public transportation is quite pleasant and efficient during working hours, with buses usually every 30 minutes and a bus stop right next to the Inn. The cost is CI$1.50 (figure US$2.00) per route (e.g., from the Inn to the central terminus in George Town, with a transfer and additional fare required to go on to the public beach or any hotel along Seven Mile Beach). But service is limited to the island’s main road, and is sporadic during evenings and weekends. There’s more information, and the “official” schedule at the Department of Tourism website.
