This was a great experience! The staff were super friendly and welcoming and made the experience amazing! They even picked us up from our resort hotel! We loved getting to snorkel and learn about the different islands on the way to our spot! Getting to also explore iguana island was another amazing part that was included! The food and drinks were great too! Would definitely recommend this to anyone who visits Turks and Caicos!

Amazing time. Very family friendly for all ages. I was worried about it bring to rowdy for my kids but it wasnt like that at all. We had 7 people ranging from 3 to 68 and everyone had fun

Everything about the experience was fantastic. The directions/instructions were easy to follow. Upon arrival to the Alexandra resort, we were picked up by golf cart and brought from our vehicle to the beach, where we then boarded our boat and began the experience with ease. Big Lou and his crew were exceptional and the perfect guides. The snorkeling portion of the experience was super fun, and safe. The snorkeling equipment was good quality, and a guide is in the water with you the whole time. The second stop was the highlight of the day. We stopped at a private beach area with the most amazing water and views. Rum punch, juice/soda/water, snacks and sandwiches were premade for everyone on board. The final stop at Iguana island was also incredible. An initial short walk from the boat allowed us to see iguanas up close, which then ended with 45 minutes of time to hangout in the crystal clear shallow waters of the inlet/beach area. Crew members offered to take photos and really helped make the experience memorable. We finished the trip with a short boat ride passed some incredible homes and got dropped off where we started. 10/10 would recommend. Well worth the money.

Jacqueline_K, Jun 2026
Book this tour! The guys working the boat have the best vibe and the places they take you are amazing! Snorkeling was so fun and I’m so glad I chose this excursion!
Christina_P, Jun 2026
If your crew likes to have a good time, this is the experience for you! Went out snorkeling first. Got to see a few sharks and lots of sharks. Got to use the slide and jump off the top level! Then headed over to Iguana Island where we purposely stayed in the water and only saw a couple of iguanas. Most beautiful water I have ever seen! Then we started our trip back on the boat. They provided sandwiches, chips and all the rum punch you could drink! DC was playing some great music and we were having a dance party until we got back to our resort. Carlos and his team definitely earned a 10 out of 10 from us!
Brooklynne_M, Jun 2026
Hands down one of the best experiences! First time snorkeling and it was awesome! Loved our crew, Big Lou, Deemo and the rest of the guys! Loved iguana island, the water was beautiful and warm.
Susan_M, May 2026
Fantastic day on the water! Snorkeling both a reef and a small shipwreck with a lovely stop at Iguana Island. And for you see JoJo the 🐬 very safety conscious and attentive crew! Thank you DJ for making sure I wasn't thirsty!
Amy_J, May 2026
It's amazing! You will enjoy every second! 2 people I'm our party saw a reef shark named Johnny will snorkeling. Iguana Island was so cool. The anchor man Noel was awesome. Crew members Baba and JD were awesome! Captain Carlos kept the fun going with some great music!

This was a fantastic way to spend our morning. The staff were super friendly and it was enjoyable from start to finish. They gave us lots of beverages and food and creating a nice boating experience with music and dancing. The snorkeling was breathtaking, and the hour to explore Iguana Island was more than enough time. There was even a water slide on the boat that was fun to try.
Louise_A, May 2026
This trip was a lot of fun. If you are very serious about snorkeling it may not be the best trip for you as we only snorkels for about 30-45 minutes. Going to Iguana Island was great and swimming in the beautiful water there was very nice. The food was ok. Would not call it gourmet though. Staff was pleasant!
Lauren_M, May 2026
Fantastic excursion. We see dolphins, turtles and even a reef shark on the scuba. Such beautiful islands and the iguanas were great!
The crew were fantastic and made sure we all had an amazing day getting everything. Boat had a slide and a dive board, music, drinks, sun and crystal clear water. What more do you want!!
Nicole_S, Apr 2026
Best day of my life….snorkled with fish, tiger shark & sting ray then on our way to Iguana Island….A FEMALE HUMPBACK WHALE & IT’S CALF!!!! A day I will never forget. Slowly we were able to get into the water & snorkel 30 ft away. Amazing
Shaila_S, Apr 2026
The staff were all upbeat and kind. Very much cared about the trip and ensuring everyone was taken care of. Equipment was in good shape. Felt safe.
Took time to slow down and show us the turtles and a dolphin.
It would be nice to have a second snorkeling experience during the trip.
Maybe less time on Iguana island.
But overall a great trip!
Colleen_W, Apr 2026
The whole experience was amazing from start to finish! The crew was amazing! Highly recommended excursion!

Fun day out! Abner and Darnell were super attentive and friendly. Saw a couple of black tip sharks while snorkeling… very cool!
Alexandra_E, Apr 2026
Very fun, unfortunately because of the wind we could only go snorkeling right off shore, which we did on our own time already, but we did see a huge turtle, a small turtle and a sting ray. Drinks were flowing and music was popping. Iguana island was nice, we explored the other side and that was cool. Make sure your back right on time as they were pulling up anchor without us. Had to flag them down so they definitely don’t count heads.
Jyoti_H, Apr 2026
Great energetic crew and lovely views of the islands! Snorkeling was good water a little too deep (15 feet).
Mike_H, Apr 2026
Crew was great- engaging and informative of all the stops on tour
Provide food and beverage and top notch hospitality!
Kristina_W, Apr 2026
Family friendly tour, great hosts, steady pace. The tour was just the morning we needed to explore some of the sights of Turks!
Sara_W, Mar 2026
Great experience. Wonderful crew. Never felt rushed. Even though sea was rough, found an ideal snorkeling area and had a smooth ride all morning. Sandwiches, snacks and rum punch were excellent!
Tyler_D, Mar 2026
Good experience. Our young kids enjoyed the half day cruise. Coral wasn’t spectacular but it was perfect for our family.
Katherine_A, Mar 2026
Our family had the BEST half-day snorkeling trip in Turks and Caicos! It was the perfect adventure for our kids (ages 9 and 12), who were snorkeling for the first time and completely blown away by all the colorful fish and the unbelievably clear water.
The four guys on the crew were absolutely fantastic—super professional and clearly focused on safety, but also so much fun. They kept the energy high with great music, jokes, and the best island vibes, which made the whole trip feel relaxed, joyful, and perfect for families.
One of the biggest highlights was stopping at Iguana Island. We walked a little farther down the beach and found a quiet, secluded stretch where it truly felt like we had a private island all to ourselves. The water there was the most beautiful shade of turquoise we’ve ever seen—honestly postcard-perfect.
Such a fun, memorable experience for our whole family. We would 100% recommend this trip to anyone visiting Turks and Caicos!
Amanda_D, Mar 2026
It was very frustrating the lack of communication. We were told the boat would pick us up and we were waiting for 20 minutes. We had to call and they said they would send a car for us after all the other passengers were waiting for us on the boat. We saw a shark and a lot of fish and iguanas which was really cool. It did not seem like a good idea to serve people alcohol before snorkeling and there was a lot of drinking. Maybe need something more family friendly.
Paige_C, Feb 2026
Excellent service. Great crew. We saw a shark, iguanas, whales, dolphins, and plenty of fish. Snorkeling was great, they had a slide, we jumped off the top of the boat, lunch was good, plenty of rum punch and beer. Music was upbeat and fun. What a great morning. Highly recommend this.
Lu_A, Feb 2026
One of the best tours I’ve ever done (and I have done them all over the world). Best snorkeling ever where you will see sea turtles & beautiful fish & coral reefs. Going to iguana island was icing on the cake as we saw many iguanas. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOUR!!
Janelle_S, Jan 2026
This was a fun activity with a great crew. Would book again. The crew showed us around Iguana Island and took us over the reef, Dove for a conch shell, even recovered one of our group member's lost jewelry from the ocean.
