Group Excursion
Discover the magic beneath the surface with our Exclusive Supreme Snorkeling Tour, a once-in-a-lifetime experience for both seasoned snorkelers and curious beginners alike.
You’ll board a comfortable boat and cruise into the turquoise waters of Grand Turk, home to the third-largest barrier reef in the world. Our guided tour takes you to the iconic Grand Turk Wall, where the coral shelf drops dramatically from 25–30 feet to over 7,000 feet deep—a breathtaking underwater cliff teeming with life.
Expect stunning views and vibrant sea life: you may spot parrotfish, angelfish, squirrelfish, snapper, French grunts, blue tangs, goatfish, sea fans, sponges, and more—all just beneath the surface in the warm, crystal-clear water.
Next, we’ll set sail for Gibbs Cay, an uninhabited island with powder-soft white sand and postcard-worthy views. On the way, our captain will dive for live conch, which becomes part of a fresh conch salad and Island Fresh Rum Punch demonstration later on.
Once on the island, you’ll be greeted by the gentle, gliding stingrays that call Gibbs Cay home. This rare opportunity to interact with these graceful creatures in their natural environment is both serene and unforgettable.
From vibrant coral reefs to deserted island vibes, this excursion is the perfect blend of adventure, beauty, and unforgettable memories.
