St Barthélemy / Taxis

Taxis are not exactly in abundance in St Barths and they are particularly hard to come by after dark, but can be found if you try hard enough. In high season you really need to reserve them a couple of days in advance. The minimum price for a ride is €10 and the maximum (from one end of the island to the other) is €20. Rates increase by 50% between 6.30pm and 6.30am and on Sundays. People do hire taxis by the night (if they want to go out partying without having to drive – it is expensive but it is possible to arrange). If one of the usual taxi drivers is not available, ask around at the hotels.

There are two taxi stations, manned by day, on the waterfront in Gustavia, at the municipal parking, t 0590 27 66 31, and at the airport, t 0590 27 75 81. Drivers offer an island tour that lasts up to 90 minutes.
