Grand Turk

Grand Turk is the capital of Turks & Caicos, and it has been a longtime favorite destination for divers eager to explore the 7,000-foot-deep pristine coral walls that drop down only 300 yards out to sea. On shore, the tiny island is home to white-sand beaches, the National Museum, and a few wild horses and donkeys, which leisurely meander past the white-walled courtyards, pretty churches, and bougainvillea-covered colonial inns on their daily commute into town.

The following Shore Excursions are available for this port on this cruise, and may be reserved beginning 180 days before the cruise begins.

Explore Grand Turk's white-sand beaches and abundant marine life during this scenic sailing and snorkeling tour along the island's coastal waters.

Depart the pier aboard the spacious, 78-foot Oasis Sea Passion catamaran, and cruise through the crystal clear turquoise waters from Grand Turk to Cotton Bay. Upon arrival at Cotton Bay, you will receive your safety instructions and snorkeling equipment, and commence your snorkeling session. The crew will be on hand to provide you with assistance in the water, and throughout the cruise.

After exploring an underwater coral reef paradise teeming with tropical fish, you will embark the catamaran and sail along Grand Turk's idyllic north coast to a private beach. En route, you can sit back, sip a refreshing Oasis Breeze drink and listen to island music playing in the background. Upon arrival at the private beach, some time will be made available to sink your toes into the soft white sand, relax on a float or explore the island.

Following your visit, you will re-board the catamaran and sail back to the pier.
