5.00The trip was a great experience! The lady who greeted us was very professional, reassuring re the slight rain delay, patiently answered the same questions from each customer as if it was the first time she had heard the question, always smiled, exuded calm, and delivered on everything she promised. The boat captain was also excellent. The boat was in great shape; fast & powerful. We started with a dive at the Reef's "wall", where we had plenty of time to enjoy the fish and reef after a safety briefing. All equipment we might need was provided. He and his mate worked seamlessly to anchor the boat when we arrived at Gibbs Cay, where we enjoyed conch harvested from the sea on the way. You can't get any fresher than that. The captain knew loads about the anatomy and uses of conch, answering our questions in an educational and entertaining way. He also was expert at handling the local sting rays, providing us an opportunity to touch one, while keeping it in the water and calm, but only after telling us how to safely approach the sting ray. Water and rum punch was included. He and his first mate made conch ceviche on the beach in front of us; it was delicious. We were the only people on the beach. It was beautiful and great fun. He effortlessly customized the experience to the variety of ages and personalities on the boat. I HIGHLY recommend this excursion.
PERFECT!

5.00Very informative, helpful and friendly crew. Learned a lot about Grand Turk, conch and stingrays. Very hands-on experience with conch and stingrays. Only improvement would be to include more info about boats used by this company. Ours was smaller than we have previously experienced on similar tours on other islands. Boat comfortably holds about 20 (we had 22) and has no toilet facility on board (good to know in advance). Very worthwhile, no frills experience.
Fantastic excursion and...

5.00Fantastic excursion and people. The walk to the starting location was easy and quick through soft sand. We had the opportunity to try out free diving (if we wanted to) for conch. They brought up 4 of them for our fresh ceviche, prepared on the beach. Before playing with the stingrays we had a full lesson on conch age and anatomy. The stingrays were so friendly and beautiful. Our guides were very familiar with them so we had plenty of time to pet them and give kisses. The snorkeling spot was beautiful and we had plenty of time! We had a small group and nothing felt rushed. I would highly recommend this group and experience for your next excursion in Grand Turk!
Terrific day in Grand Turk

5.00We spent the morning with a fantastic crew ! Snorkeling in the gorgeous waters. My daughter dove for a conch shell and then we stopped at Gibbs Cay and spent time with the stingrays. The crew made us conch ceviche which was delicious. I highly recommend this excursion! It was an easy walk down the beach from the ship.

5.00It was a totally awesome experience. Captain JJ and his sidekick looked after us so well. Watching him get our conch while being dragged behind the boat was great. I would highly recommend this excursion.
