Although many different types of transportation are available in
George Town, it's also worthwhile to simply walk and explore the
islands on foot. Hitchhiking is also easy on the Exumas, and many
residents rely on it for traveling and commuting to work. However,
to explore the cays north of Great Exuma, a boat or water taxi is
required.
Taxi
While there are no public buses on the Exumas and no shuttle services
from the airport, taxis meet every flight and any hotel will call one
for you, with the eight-mile trip to George Town costing around US$25
for two passengers.

242/345-5005, cell 357-0757), who drives an antiquated white limo, and
Leslie Dames (phone 242/357-0015), who pilots a minivan decked out like
the Starship Enterprise.
