There is an adventure in the boat ride itself. Some offer rides from Black River, which can take an hour or more and cost you much more in gas.Originally Posted by brownsd54
We met Rasta George in 2007. He took us up the Black River to see all the flora, fauna and crocks, then he ran us out to Pelican Bar. Spent the whole afternoon with him and his boat captain. Driving through Black River 3 years ago and who is walking down the street but Rasta George. I just called and he is still in the business. If you would just like to have a nice relaxing day with friends and family, I'd recommend Rasta. His boat is 16 or maybe 20' (876)355-1947
Parottee is literally as close as you can get. The boat ride is the least expensive and about 10 to 15 minutes. Supposedly at low tide if you are tall enough you can walk it.
Any which way you look at it you are on a boat in the Caribbean, which is really cool.
If you want to experience a long ride on the Caribbean and money is not a problem, take a boat from Black River. We've done it and it is blast as long as no one gets sea sick.
But for quick and cheap, which allows more time at the Pelican Bar, take a boat from Parottee.
The Pelican Bar is a trip I never refuse. A bar in the middle of the sea?!?! Way too cool!
