Board our vessel for your sailing and snorkelling adventure and make yourself comfortable as we set out on one of the most fun adventures available in Turks & Caicos. You will be picked up on Grace Bay Beach and then set Sail along the North Coast of Providenciales, enjoying the views while relaxing on the bow nets and looking out for dolphins and other marine life. We will head out to the Barrier Reef for our snorkel stop. Follow one of our experienced local guides on one of the most beautiful guided snorkel tours as we snorkel and explore the Leeward Reef, one of the healthiest living reefs in the Atlantic. You will see the usual residents like Snappers, Groupers, Sergeant majors, Trigger fish, Barracuda, Needle fish and sometimes Sharks Rays and Turtles. Leeward Reef is part of the Turks and Caicos Barrier reef network which is the third largest barrier reef system in the world. *All timings are approximate, in water snorkelling time is usually approx 45 mins
Half Moon Bay
We do not stop at both Little Water Cay and Half Moon Bay. The location chosen is dependent on the weather. At Half Moon Bay our guides will take you ashore and take you on a nature tour, a guided walking tour of this natural sandbar. This area which is home to a large family of Native Rock Iguanas, is surrounded by a series of sandbars resulting in a shallow lagoon area at the back. Our guides will take you for a walk along the lagoon, explain to you how the sandbar was formed and give you a bit more information about the area, history of the islands etc. During this part of the nature walk guides will point out baby turtles, baby sharks, bonefish, barracuda, mojarra and sometimes rays and flamingoes. Alternatively you can simply relax on the beach or swim in the shallows.

★★★★★ Unforgettable 4-Hour Catamaran Sail & Snorkel from Grace Bay!

5.00This tour was hands-down one of the highlights of our Turks & Caicos trip! From the moment we stepped onto the beautiful catamaran, the crew made us feel like VIPs — super friendly, professional, and full of contagious island energy. We sailed along the stunning Grace Bay coastline with crystal-clear turquoise water everywhere you looked, then anchored at a gorgeous reef just off the barrier reef. The snorkel gear was top-quality (masks actually fit properly and fins in every size), and the crew jumped in with us to point out turtles, colorful fish, and even a curious reef shark that cruised by. The water was warm, calm, and so clear you could see 20+ feet down, easily some of the best snorkeling we’ve ever done. Back on board, they served fresh fruit, rum punch that actually tasted like rum (not just juice!), beer, sodas, and water, all unlimited. The sound system was pumping chill island tunes while we sailed back with the wind in our hair. Watching the sunset colors explode over Grace Bay on the return leg was pure magic. Perfect pace (never felt rushed), small group (maybe 20-25 people max), spotless boat, and the crew genuinely seemed to love what they do. Worth every penny and then some. If you only do one boat excursion in Providenciales, make it this one — you’ll be smiling about it for the rest of your vacation! Already planning to book again next time we’re in Turks. Highly, highly recommend! 🌊🐠🍹⛵

5.00Couldn’t have been better. Best snorkeling, best crew - helped my little guy get comfortable snorkeling and told him all the fish species! We all had a BLAST which is a hard thing to find for a group with an adult, a 14 year old and a 7 year old! Will do this again every time we come!
Great day on the ocean

4.00We had a great time on our 4-hour sail and snorkel excursion. The boat was clean with plenty of room for everyone. After picking everyone up along Grace Bay, we snorkeled for a bit and then headed to Iguana Island and then Half Moon Bay. The scenery was spectacular. The crew was the BEST!!! They were all very professional and very personable. The sandwiches, drinks and fruit were perfect after snorkeling. The whole vibe was very relaxing, the music was good, and we just loved being on the water! Would definitely recommend this and do again!!
Amazing experience!

5.00Had a blast! Took the most beautiful pictures imaginable. We loved exploring the beaches. The snorkeling wasn’t that great but it was rainy and not the crew’s fault. Wish we had been able to spend more time on the beaches instead of the water. Still, an amazing experience with a very fun crew and captain!
We had a blast
