Planning a Trip

Getting There & Getting Around

Albury's Ferry Service, Marsh Harbour (tel. 242/365-6010; www.alburysferry.com), runs a four-times-a-day service to Great Guana Cay. A round-trip ticket costs $20 (£11) for adults, $10 (£5.30) for children under 11.

Instead of driving on the island, most people get around in small boats. Boats are available to charter for a half-day or a full day (or a month, for that matter). For example, a 7m (23-ft.) sailboat, fully equipped for living and cruising, is available for charter, and deep-sea fishing trips can be arranged. Try Island Marine Boat Rentals (tel. 242/366-0282; www.islandmarine.com), which rents 5m (16-ft.) Boston Whalers at $125 (£66) per day, $100 (£53) per day for 3 days, or $625 (£331) per week. Sea Horse Boat Rentals (tel. 242/367-2513; www.sea-horse.com) rents 5.4m (18-ft.) Privateers at $165 (£87) per day (for rentals of 7 days or more, the cost is $105/£56 per day or $735/£390 for the week). Both establishments are open Monday to Saturday 8am to 5pm. Island Marine is also open on Sunday 8am to noon.
