A: We may not be stopping at Grand Turk. I was told that the dock was washed out and Carnival has dropped that Port of Call from some of the itineraries. I pray that's not true because my family loves the Margaritaville at that port.

A: If you are vaccinated the cruise line validates when getting off. If you are not you will not be allowed to debark. They can tell when they scan your card.

A: like courtneyb said, it is recorded on your card. But, I always take a photo of my vaccination card with my phone. that way if anyone wants to see it I have a copy without having to carry my card with me.

A: We were there in March and both my 14 and 10 year old got off no problem. I believe everyone has to be vaccinated still to get off the ship. When we were walking through their store at the port (only way to the island), they made you put a mask on... just to walk through the store. so make sure you have a mask with you getting offSee More

A: Somebody told you the wrong thing. Currently only those unvaccinated 16 years old and up can not leave the ship at Grand Turk. If 15 or younger, and unvaccinated, they can leave the ship accompanied at all times by a fully vaccinated legal guardian.

A: We took a “Fun” tour of the island. They took us to the lighthouse and to a small hotel/cafe for lunch. It was delicious. They served a local dish. The tour ended at Governors Beach where they had beach chairs and umbrellas. We soaked up the sun, swa... m in the ocean, and relaxed in the shade. We enjoyed the relaxation then joined the party at Margaritaville. That was the big gathering place on the island. There are shops and swimming right off the boat too. There is not much else on this small island.See More
