Grand Turk Island Port Reviews

We went on The Ultimate Extreme Snorkeling Adventure!!! This was the highlight of all of our ports. My wife and I had the entire boat to ourselves. I could write a book about how good this was. Donavon was our captain and DeDe was also really good.we got to feed the fish, pet a 5 ft nurse shark, eat a conch salad, swim with Stingrays for 45 minutes, feed them conch, and keep the shell. This was the best excursion experience I have ever done!!!

Was beautiful, but packed. You walked right off the ship to the beach which was nice.

Much more crowded than in previous visits here but it never disappoints. Crystal clear water and a very nice beach. Do yourself a favor and walk down the beach towards Jack’s Shack. Less crowded. The yellow hut with jerk chicken it a must to grab a bite and a cold beer.

We did the hummer excursion. Our guides were Johnnie and Moses. We had a blast. The island was beautiful. The people were friendly. Loved this island.

Very bright & historical. We took a bus trolley around the island, bought some alcohol and got back on the ship.

I wish I could rate this one higher and would have if we had simply stayed at the port. Instead we rented a golf cart so we could cruise around and see the island. What we saw was nothing. Mostly run down shacks and lots of garbage everywhere. We did stop at Govenrors beach and it was beautiful! Seeing the donkeys was fun too. Upon return we found out we should have just stayed at the port!! The large pools (with swim up bars!), clean beaches, fun restaurant, little shops and lively music would have been more than enough for us to enjoy our time. I understand that Grand Turk is recovering (slowly) from a large hurricane, but until they recover more I’d recommend sticking to just the port and skipping the rest of the island.

My favorite place on the trip. Beautiful waters and beaches. I would recommend going to Jacks Shack for some jerk chicken or other delicious food. They have plenty of free lawn chairs to choose from but I would recommend renting one up front with an umbrella.

I loved Grand Turk Island! Advice: don't buy an excursion on through the boat. There's PLENTY of private vendors at a fraction of the cost as soon as you get out of the port. Take a taxi to the beaches further away from port. They're less crowded and relaxing. DO wear water shoes and be aware of the reef. It was washed away during the hurricanes.

The first beach on this planet that I did not want to leave. Currently have 2 cruises scheduled and both include Grand Turk in the itinerary. Absolutely breathtaking!

So dirty. They did not clean the beach, lots of food and bottles on the beach. The water had food and bottles in it as well. I was so looking forward to visiting this island again (visited 6 years ago and it was amazing). Carnival needs to regulate with Grand Turks about the look of this island. Absolutely unacceptable. I was so scared my daughter was going to get hurt. Also the guys and girls trying to sell stuff was so bad. They were charging people who didn't know better $25 for the beach chairs and told them none of the chairs were free which was a lie. We overheard this and told the people here you can have our free ones and also told them that all of the chairs are free right in front of the so call workers. They walked away really fast when we said that. The people were so mad that they were trying to rip them off. I was really upset about this. Everyone should get their money back from this port and Carnival should not make this a port stop until things get better.
