Transit Coordinator Tips: Orient Bay Beach
Orient Bay is on the French side of the island. Typical planning estimate is 25 minutes. Plan a generous return buffer before ship all-aboard time.
If traveling with a large group, negotiate shared shuttle vans at the port dispatcher desk to save on per-person transport rates. Keep cash (USD or local currency) on hand for taxi transfers.
