Public transport is limited to Scato's bus service - a fleet of pick-up trucks running to no particular schedule and no particular stops; you just flag them down as they approach. Taxis are easy to come by unless there's several cruise ships in town. There are stands at the ferry docks in Road Town and West End (look out for the brightly colored stands with men chatting and playing checkers).

If you need to arrange for one ahead of time, try British Virgin Islands Taxi Association (phone 284/494-7519); Wickham's Cay (phone 284/494-2322); and Beef Island Taxi Association (phone 284/495-1982).

Car rental companies on the island include Dede's Car Rental, Fat Hog's Bay (phone 284/495-2041); Del's Jeep & Car Rental, Cane Garden Bay (phone 284/495-9356); Dollar Rent-a-Car, Prospect Reef and Long Bay Beach (phone 284/494-6093); Hertz, West End (phone 284/495-4405); ITGO Car Rental, Wickham's Cay (phone 284/494-5150); and Tola Car Rentals, Fish Bay (phone 284/494-8652). If you'd rather be out on the water, you can hire a small dinghy or even a large powerboat to get around - prices range between US$50-300 per day.
