Water taxis are essential transport rather than a single attraction. Short trips can be informal, while remote lodges and night journeys require clearer advance arrangements.
Why It’s Worth Your Time
Before boarding, agree on the exact dock, total fare, currency, luggage, number of passengers, and whether the quoted ride includes a return. Check that life jackets are available and usable. After dark, ask a hotel or restaurant to call a known operator and avoid isolated docks, overloaded boats, and impaired travel. Conditions and service frequency vary rather than following a universal timetable.
What Stands Out
- Primary inter-island transportation
- Agree on fare and destination first
- Check life jackets and loading
- Arrange remote and nighttime returns
- No universal operating schedule
