Grand Turk is a great port for quick and easy access to snorkeling, whether you take a paid
excursion or bring your own equipment and snorkel at the beaches by the ship.
We’ve always snorkeled on our own at the beaches and this video will show you what
we typically experience while snorkeling at both the beach on the North side -- or left
side -- of the cruise ship pier and the one on the South side -- or right side.
The water area that is on the North side -- or left side -- of the cruise ship pier is mostly
clear of rocks and full of fish traveling together in schools.
It’s clear the fish are used to being fed by cruise passengers, so don’t be alarmed
if you suddenly find yourself surrounded by an entire school of fish that aren’t shy.
The water area on the South side -- or right side -- of the cruise dock has many more rocks
to navigate, but you’ll also have a better chance to spot sea life other than fish, such
as sea urchins and more.
Although you will find fish swimming above the rocks, you’ll want to take your time
as you explore the area because there are many fish and other sea life hiding among
the rocks.
