★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,222 reviews · from $159

Cruise Grace Bay, snorkel among coral and tropical fish, visit Iguana Island, and enjoy a beach picnic with drinks from Providenciales.

“This cruise was amazing and so much fun. Captain Johnny and Adam were very professional and main focus was to much sure everyone on the cruise were enjoying themselves. Snorkeling has always been on my bucket list, but I can’t swim. These guys encouraged me to face my fears and Captain Johnny tried to teach me how to swim. Sandwiches, chips, fruits, and beverages are provided for lunch. The music was a vibe! My son and I had an incredible time. If you’re planning a trip to Turks, don’t miss out on this morning cruise.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 115 reviews · from $103Best value

Review of Grand Turk’s Amazing Wall Snorkeling Tour, with clear planning advice, reef highlights, costs, safety notes, and honest drawbacks.

“Went to one snorkel location, not much to see there other than the drop off and a few fish. Seemed like 15 clients was a lot for the size of the boat. Hydraulic steering broke and had to cancel second half of trip, but it is a boat and mechanical things break. Main guide very friendly, second mate not very helpful. Overall just an OK excursion.”
