Hi Wendy,
We just returned from the 1/18 Western. We did the 11:15-1:15 with Captain Marvin's. We asked them to drop us off at 7 Mile Beach near the Holiday Inn after the excursion, and they had no problem with that. I think it was close to 2 by the time we got there. We spent about an hour there, and it was gorgeous. We took a taxi back to the pier at a cost of $4 PP. We still had time to do a little shoppping before we had to be back. I'm glad we fit it in, it was absolutely beautiful.
Have fun!
Joanna
