This is a great excursion - it gives you the opportunity to go different activities in one morning, from snorkeling to walking on a beautiful sandbar to seeing some iguanas ! Crew was amazing, great drinks and tasty food, highly recommended! There were two sets of people on our tour that had been on the same excursion twice already :)

Felicia_S, Jun 2026
Amazing staff; Ross, Jay, and Erickson were great hosts, very attentive, knowledgeable, and we felt like we were on a personalized tour . Great sites and the boat is spacious too. You’re not crammed in shoulder to shoulder.

Greatest boat trip ever

krisann_l, Jun 2026
This was an awesome time Ross and his crew were very knowledgeable about the area and gave us lots of facts

Wonderful experience

Kelly_C, Jun 2026
Wonderful experience and amazing crew! We absolutely loved the sandbar wished we could have stayed there all day! Crew members (sorry I can’t remember all names) were amazing and one especially looked after me when I had sea sickness on the way to snorkel (water got quite choppy). Best crew I’ve ever had onboard any boating experience. Would definitely recommend. 10/10. Thank you!

Great Crew

Lauren_W, Jun 2026
Great tour. Wear shoes when u stop at iguana island because there is rocks and little spike balls that will stick your feet.

Not the best experience

denise_d, Jun 2026
Confirm pick up point we were told in fromt of our hotel then last minite changed to another location. Also ran out of food leaving only tuna fish. Late arrival at new location. For the cost of trip we were quite disappointed

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Our pick-up locations should always be reconfirmed the day before your tour, as outlined in your tickets. Third-party booking agents will often note your hotel as the pick-up point, however this is not the case. To ensure the tour operates efficiently, we only offer pick-ups from five designated locations along Grace Bay Beach. Once we know where you are staying, we advise the nearest pick-up location to your accommodation. On occasion, weather and sea conditions may require us to change the pick-up location at short notice to ensure the tour can operate safely. While this is more common during the winter months, it can happen at any time of year. Regarding lunch, we offer a selection of sandwich options. As with any catered excursion, once a particular option has been been selected by other guests, it may no longer be available. We're sorry that only the tuna option remained when lunch was served.

We had the best time,...

Claudia_A, Jun 2026

Brandy_S, Jun 2026
- just the right amount of time at each stop - offering of drums upon arrival and timing of drinks, fresh fruit, and large sandwiches perfectly spaced:) Tour guides were friendly, two of the three were pretty quiet but the other was more lively.

Totally worth it!!

Justin_Y, Jun 2026

Absolutely amazing experience

Django_Q, Jun 2026
It was a lot of fun and the staff were very personable and very entertaining. Definitely, will do this again when I come back to Turks and Caicos

Fun for the whole family

Erica_B, Jun 2026
We had an excellent time! I have a fear of dark water and the snorkeling portion was a blast and I was able to do it. Pickup was smooth and seamless, the crew was great, the stops were super fun. Our family of four (two teens) really enjoyed it.

Beautiful half day in TCI!

The locations visited are...

Kamran_H, May 2026
The locations visited are simply breathtaking and a definite experience not to be missed. We snorkelled in the reef, the guides took amazing photos in the caves for the guests, we saw a shark amongst all the other sea life. We visited Iguana Island and got to spend some time on the unspoiled beach. Then we jetted off to walk on a wonderful sand bar and search for conch shells and sand dollars. We did it all and the four hours flew by too quickly. The memories of the trip were made by the staff whose enthusiasm spread to everyone on board. Each and everyone of them took the time to ensure all guests were happy, well fed and entertained. I cannot recommend this trip enough.

Couple who love tours

George_M, May 2026
3 great activities on this tour. The snorkeling went a little long for us and the guide who took us out went way out from the boat. You do have the option to stay back tho. All in all, we had a great day—iguana island was fun and so was the sandbar!

Anniversary Snorkel

jashley37us, May 2026
We loved this tour. We had three stops snorkeling, sandbar and iguana Island. Our captains and crew were amazing. They were very helpful during the snorkeling with equipment and directions for safety. Drinks, and food were good. They even had champagne to toast for birthdays and anniversaries for people on board. ❤️

Perfect!

Van_G, May 2026
Crew, drinks, sandwiches/fruit and snorkeling were all a blast. Fun and laid back all rolled into one.

Snorkel, Iguana island, and the Sandbar

Piero_M, May 2026
Captain and crew were fantastic. They made everyone feel safe. Was a great vibe on board with music, drinks, and lively atmosphere. The experience was something we will never forget.

Absolutely Incredible Experience!

Kerry_C, May 2026
What an unforgettable day! From start to finish, the crew brought the absolute best energy—friendly, fun, welcoming, and made everyone feel like family. You can truly tell they love what they do, and it made the whole experience even more special. The reef snorkeling was beautiful with crystal-clear water and amazing marine life. Then, Iguana Island was such a cool experience—absolutely stunning and something everyone should see at least once! But honestly, what made the trip stand out most was the crew. Fun was definitely had, friendships were made, and there were so many laughs along the way. They created such an amazing atmosphere that it felt more like a day out with friends than an excursion. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable, feel-good adventure with fantastic vibes. Thank you for making our day so special—we’ll be talking about this experience for a long time! 🌊☀️🦎💙

The crew was wonderful...

Reyna_E, May 2026
The crew was wonderful and all of the stops were breathtaking! So glad we chose this excursion, it included everything. Iguanas, snorkeling, sand bar, swimming, tons of amazing photo ops! Plus food and drinks. It made for a memorable part of our vacation.

You need to do this!!

Rosemary_Z, May 2026
Amazing way to see multiple sites across the island. The crew was awesome. Snacks and sandwiches provided, and drinks were flowing.

Awesome day!

Gary_L, May 2026
This was fun, the guys take care of you all day, even guided snorkeling where they bring you to the right spots to see fish. Multiple stops, snorkeling, sand bar and iguana island but just being on that water for a few hours is all I needed. Started with Moscow Mules but since I'm watching my sugar, we made some modifications... ask Ross for a Baby Donkey instead lol.

Had a pleasant time on...

Leo, May 2026
Had a pleasant time on the boat, the tour guides/ crew was fun, always cracking jokes. They made sure everybody was safe during the snorkeling. Unfortunately we didn't see any other animals besides fishes while snorkeling. Guess you just have to be lucky. Other than that we had a great time, enjoyed the view and the lguana island. It was informative too. Thank you :)
