The Exclusive Escapes crew has great customer service! Throughout our time on Grand Turk, they ensured we had everything we needed for an enjoyable trip. They provide great guidance on experiences and also how to enjoy the rest of your time on the island. During covid times, they have been incredibly safe, making us feel secure during uncertain times. Grand Turk is open for business and I recommend working with Exclusive Escapes when you visit the island.

Our thanks to Albert and the personalized tour he gave us. We arrived early and only the 2 of us so he offered us a tour in his van. His knowledge and history of Grand Turk was very enlightening. He was kind to answer our questions concerning the past hurricane and his experience. We were very fortunate to have spent time with Albert on Grand Turk, thank you so much!

6. Private Whale Watching Charter (Grand Turk)

Unnamed Road, TKCA 1ZZ, Turks and Caicos Islands Ocean Vibes Scuba & Watersports

Our tours are done on a purpose built 46' Power Catamaran, powered by twin Yamaha f250hp outboard motors, configured with lots of seating, both sun and shaded areas, an elevated flybridge for better spotting whales from a distance, marine toilet and PA Microphone system for crystal clear narration of the tour by our on board marine biologist. We have a hydrophone on board which we will drop into the water and see if the whales will give us a song. Board the boat at the beach and head out to an area that we have had many sightings in search of some whale activity. Once whales are located we head out to where they are and observe them from a distance being careful not to startle them or disrupt them. Sometimes they will approach the boat and hang around for a while, in these instances one of our guides will get in the water and allow you to accompany him for a closer look and hopefully some photos and videos to help document our visiting whales.

Inclusions: Snacks, Bottled water, All Fees and Taxes, Use of Snorkelling equipment, Complimentary Airport Transfer if flying in to Grand Turk
