How To Get Here - Travel Advice
- Try to schedule a mid-day arrival and departure to avoid arriving before your sailboat is ready. If you are a Scout group, allow sufficient time to clean your sailboat at the end of your trip. You'll be able to board your sailboat after 10:00hrs - and disembark by 10:00hrs on the day you leave.
- When you clear Customs and Immigration take a Minicab Taxi, costing around $25, to the marina. Our staff will have arranged to meet you there. (You'll receive more detailed arrival information by email well before your trip).
- Ensure you have adequate travel insurance.
- Label all your bags clearly, ideally with large, similar labels to avoid losing baggage.
- Note that hotel rooms in Marsh Harbour are in limited supply and expensive so book early if you need layover accommodations. There's a much greater choice of accommodations in Florida and rooms there will more likely appeal to a limited budget.
- Ensure you have parental consent forms for travel outwith the US for youth under the age of 18yrs traveling alone.
