from the roundabout to anywhere on the Cliffs is $100J's........
once in awhile a route taxi will do both the beach and cliffs.........
so it would be $200J's like the boardies are saying......

technically speaking you'll see the locals only paying $80J's cause that's the real price........
us tourist for some reason like to round it off to $100J's......guess dat is der tip......
plus trying to get back $20J's from the driver is a pain........

it wasn't too long ago that it was $50J's to do the beach or cliffs.......
actually it was that $50J's for years and years.....wi kinda got spoiled

never take a white plate auto if there are red plate taxis around........
if you are stranded then it is okay.........lol

The route taxi rate has gone up to j$90 - but in most cases, everyone pays j$100 since the drivers dont always have change. And with j$10 being about a dime us$, no one really gets too worked up about that amount.

And...

It is NEVER OKAY to take an illegal taxi (white plated vehicle). You are not covered by the driver's insurance. White plate vehicles are not insured to carry paying passengers and should a serious accident occur, since you were participating in a crime (hiring an illegal taxi), you can be held liable for damages as is the driver. Suggesting otherwise is terrible advice and should never be done... period.
