Description

Get away from the crowds and join Exclusive Escapes for a small-group snorkeling experience designed around comfort, safety, and open-water exploration. Board one of our vessels directly from Grand Turk’s beachfront and enjoy a relaxed tour with friends or family. The experience begins with snorkeling at a single designated reef site, selected by the captain based on real-time sea conditions to provide optimal visibility and safety. This reef stop features coral formations and marine life representative of Grand Turk’s surrounding waters. Following the snorkeling portion, the tour continues to Gibbs Cay—an uninhabited island known for its powdery white sand and shallow turquoise flats—where guests can enjoy time in the water alongside stingrays that naturally inhabit the area. Along the way, guests may observe the captain free diving for live conch. Upon arrival at Gibbs Cay, our team will conduct a live conch demonstration and prepare fresh conch salad to enjoy.

Once in a lifetime stingray encounter

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to interact with a wild stingray! After a lovely snorkel we went to a tiny island where the captain invited a ray known to him to hang out and anyone who wanted to could pet and lightly hold the animal. It was on her terms and she lingered even after the guests stopped petting her. We were also treated to ceviche made with freshly caught conch. From start to finish this was a fantastic, entertaining and safe excursion. The crew of three was wonderful! I appreciated supporting a family run business. It was lovely to be on a smaller boat with only @30 other people. It was great fun to bounce along the waves.

Wonderful Snorkeling

Our guides, JJ and Kelly, were fun and professional. They made this a memorable experience. From the time you get to the main building you realize this is the real deal, and these guys know what they're doing. Locals who are passionate about what they're doing, showing you some really beautiful stuff, and cooking you a delicious, fresh meal. Music, fun, and exploration are the name of the game. If you like that, these guys rock.

Enjoyable day!

JJ and Kelly gave us a very enjoyable day! We ended up on the smaller boat which was not a catamaran, and a bit disappointing, but the snorkeling was good, and Kelly made us a very good conch ceviche with conch he dove down and got himself. It was my first time trying conch. We also went to a beach for a bit, where there were stingrays coming and going. It was lots of fun!

Operator response

Experiencing Grand Turk from the water means experiencing the island as it has been known for generations. Watching conch brought up from the sea through free diving, sharing fresh ceviche prepared from that day’s catch, and spending time at a quiet cay alongside stingrays reflects traditions that continue to connect island families to the ocean. Every vessel offers its own perspective of these waters while remaining guided by the same local knowledge, maritime heritage, and respect for Mother Nature. As a small family business on a remote island, your words help preserve the culture, support local households, and carry forward the traditions that make Grand Turk so unique. 🧡

Amazing experience

We had to wait for a couple of hours on another ship to arrive, but it was no big deal because we got Starbucks and then we learned quite a bit about grand Turk. The guides there are born local and passionate about their people and culture. We also saw a donkey and they explained the difference in conchs to us. We snorkel for the perfect amount of time and then went to an uninhabitable island and got to interact with the stingrays, which is a once in a lifetime experience! They made ceviche in front of us after they FREE DIVED for the conchs. Also an amazing experience. We will absolutely book this excursion again whenever we are back in grand Turk. Kelly was AWESOME and the free diver and Gary was so cool- he was the captain of the ship. They are both amazing and the rum punch is to die for. Book this— you won’t regret it.

Horrible customer service and don’t care about me

They didn’t give great directions or a specific time so we went to find the meet up spot and couldn’t… anyways their costumer service sucks! And wouldn’t answer the phone calls or texts. I feel scammed!

Operator response

A BIG hello from Grand Turk, The people behind these excursions are not separate from the community itself. They are island residents whose families have lived beside these waters for generations and whose daily lives remain deeply connected to the sea. On small islands, responsibilities often overlap. The person preparing equipment may also be greeting guests. The captain guiding an excursion may also be coordinating the many moving parts required to bring a day on the water together. Care is not always expressed in the same way or remembered in the same way. Travel has a remarkable ability to place expectations, unfamiliar surroundings, and emotion into a single moment. Experiences that feel deeply personal are often carried home and later expressed through public words. Those words hold particular weight on a remote island. They influence how future travelers view the people, families, and small businesses that continue opening their doors and sharing their home with visitors from around the world. Every guest has the opportunity to choose what they leave behind in another country. Some leave encouragement. Some leave perspective. Some leave words that become part of an island’s story for years to come. — Exclusive Escapes Grand Turk
