By Taxi in St. Barths

By Taxi

Taxis are expensive and not particularly easy to arrange, especially in the evening. There's a taxi station at the airport and another in Gustavia; from elsewhere you must contact a dispatcher in Gustavia or St-Jean. Technically, there's a flat rate for rides up to five minutes long. Each additional three minutes is an additional amount. In reality, however, cabbies usually name a fixed rate -- and will not budge. Fares are 50% higher from 8 PM to 6 AM and on Sunday and holidays.

Information

Gustavia taxi dispatcher (0590/27-66-31). St-Jean taxi dispatcher (0590/27-75-81).
