Grand Turk Island Port Reviews

Went to Margaritaville and hung out at pool and beach. It is literally right off the ship. No need for an excursion here.

Beautiful!! Spent the day in the ocean with the ship in our background. We had fish swimming all around us. We had a great day!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️By far the best place I have ever been. We read up on Jacks Shack and knew we were going there. Quiet away from all of the “cruise” guests. It’s located on the far end of the beach. The water is indescribable! Would love to retire there someday! On my list to DEFINITELY go back.

Grand Turk was our last stop on our 8-day Southern Caribbean cruise. While Curacao was our absolute favorite port, there was plenty of beauty and fun in Grand Turk! We were traveling with a group of 14 friends/family, so some of them had been here before. They wanted to return to a beach where they boated out to the Continental Shelf to do some snorkeling. We took a taxi passenger van across Grand Turk to the beach where the snorkeling boat was. There were wild donkeys there to greet us when we arrived! Be aware of small children around them...do not feed them and wash hands after petting them...they do carry diseases. 3 of us remained at the beach to swim/relax and the rest went on the hour snorkeling tour on the boat. They then came back and enjoyed another hour or so on the beach with us. We then all went back via the same taxi to the Cruise Center, which has plenty to do! You really never have to leave there. Beautiful beaches and plenty of fun right there off the ship! We ate at Margaritaville for lunch. The service there was not good at all for us. Not sure why. However, the pool area was hopping with music and liveliness, and is FREE! My 5 year-old and I went over the bridge of the pool to the zero-entry area where it was not as crowded and had some pool fun for awhile after lunch. Then we headed off to the beach located to the right of the ship (when coming off the ship) to find a Conch Shell Graveyard I had read about. This was one of my favorite parts of the port! I love seashells and this beach, while rocky, was completely deserted! No one else was out there! A short 10-15 minute walk. You can’t take the shells back onto the ship, but I got a few pictures and memories while there! We then packed up and boarded the ship just in time to leave port. Grand Turk is a beautiful area! One thing I wish we would have done was hair braiding for our daughter. A lot of people had this done somewhere while in port there, and it was super cute on them. I will post pics of our time there on my profile.

This was an awesome port. The water here is to die for. It’s just so beautiful. We enjoyed this port a lot. We hung out st the beach the WHOLE time which wasn’t bad at all. We walked down to jacks shack where the water was even more beautiful. The locals were friendly they didn’t harass you like some of the reviews said, I smelled a little weed in the air but was NEVER asked to buy any unlike what others are saying.. margaritaville was ok and the shopping was fun. I’ll go back here anytime!!!

Margaritaville was exceptional! Soooooo much FUN!

My husband and I are very partial to Turks&Caicos! We got engaged on this cruise! In fact, we walked into a jewelry store and he surprised me! He bought me the most gorgeous 4.5 carat, deep purple/blue Tanzanite in white gold with small white diamonds! Then he got down on one knee in the packed store and proposed to me! We ended up honeymooning in Turks&Caicos on Grace Bay...we had a trip planned coming up in February 2017, so we used that for our honeymoon! I’ll post a few pictures from the special day!

One of my favorite ports! We rented a golf cart and drive all around the island. We stopped several times to check out the beaches, they're gorgeous, sandy, and, other than the ones right by the ship, totally deserted. We were alone and able to walk the beach and swim. We drove up to the lighthouse, which was pretty cool. We are going back in March and I cannot wait!

By far my favorite island on our cruise! The whole reason I picked our cruise! Beautiful waters just a perfect beach day for us! We went to Jack’s Shack and tried the rum, very good! The kids loved playing with their dogs on beach

The beach was white and clean and the water was an amazing tourquise color!!
