Authorized airport taxis are readily available outside the arrivals hall. Fares are government-regulated and fixed based on the destination, not metered. It is advisable to confirm the price with the dispatcher or driver before beginning your journey.
Several car rental agencies, including international brands like Avis, Hertz, and Sixt, as well as local companies, have desks in the arrivals terminal. A temporary local driving permit is required and can be purchased from the rental company. Booking in advance is highly recommended.
Public transportation is available via the local minibus system. This is the most economical option but can be less convenient for travelers with luggage, as it requires a short walk to the main road outside the airport. The service does not run on a fixed schedule and is primarily used by locals.
As a pilot, during COVID time, it's not harder to go to this airport. You just need to find a nice Handler (HARRIS) that will take care of everything when you arrive there (even with a C172). The West Coast of the Island can be turbulent in the afternoon. When I go to Hewanorra coming from the north of the caribbean, I generally pass on the East Coast to make that flight comfortable for passengers.

The approach and departure are very nice.. There isn't much to do here while waiting for your flight however.
Landed here aboard Air Transit. Nice airport and beautiful approach.
