Such a beautiful way to experience Turks and Caicos! We had a wonderful time as a family, and the turquoise water and gorgeous scenery made it so memorable. This tour was a highlight of our trip and a lovely addition to my husband’s birthday celebration. So glad we did it! 🌊💙

These guys were the best. Went above and beyond to make sure we all had a great time. I definitely recommend.
Amazing day on the water. The captain and bartender were very hospitable, made sure everyone was safe and having a great time. Would highly recommend this experience - it was the highlight of our trip!
It was amazing! Very fun guides and great experience. They will make your trip amazing, I promise!
We almost didn't go. Today was our 27th wedding anniversary, and we went back and forth on whether a group boat tour was how we wanted to spend it. So glad we did. This crew gave us memories we'll be talking about for years, and it ended up being the best of the six or so tours we've done in Turks and Caicos. The weather didn't do us any favors. Storms were rolling through and the water was choppy, so visibility while snorkeling wasn't great. That's on Mother Nature, not the crew. We still got to swim with giant sea turtles and others saw some huge stingrays glide right by. Parker got in the water with us and even dove down deep to show us exactly where to look for the turtles. Here's what really got me. I'm the first one to get seasick, and of course I forgot my Dramamine. I figured I was in for a rough day. Not even a little! On the way to Iguana Island, other boats were getting tossed around. Captain Tattoo waited in a calm spot for a few minutes, then found a smooth path and threaded us right through. I felt totally fine the whole way. After Iguana Island, we hung out on the upper deck, jumping off and riding the slide. A bachelorette party of 16 was on board too, and the music and energy made it a blast for everybody. One more thing showed us the kind of care we got. As we were pulling away from a pickup spot, Shawney spotted a young woman popping out of the tall grass dragging a suitcase. Her cab had dropped her at the wrong place, straight from the airport. They turned the boat around to get her. Turns out she was the maid of honor! That day could've gone real different for her. Safe, smart, and fun without being reckless. We felt looked after from start to finish, and it made our anniversary one to remember. Highly recommend, and we'd do it again in a heartbeat!
Tour was awesome! Well informed and very positive even with a new snorkelers. Patience was key and they did awesome. Loved the tour!
This is your sign to book this. This excursion was probably my favorite ever in Turks and Caicos. Philip, our boat captain and Kemar were so cool and funny too. We were able to see so many fishes and I even got to swim next to a reef shark underwater which was kinda scary but so COOL. They have a slide on the boat and a diving board as well, which was so fun. They even provide food and drinks and they make sure you have the best experience. I can’t stop talking about it.
Excellent everything! Would do this again in a heartbeat and book the same boat.
Such a fun time very attentive and friendly crew. Guided snorkeling was fun, time on beach was good, saw a lot of things and swam with dolphins.
The crew was amazing and the whole experience was a 10/10. We saw dolphins on the way back to the resort and they stopped and let us jump in to swim with them!
Very fun. Saw some dolphins, the crew stopped the boat so we could swim with them. The crew was outstanding and energetic.
We had an amazing time on this excursion! Our boys, ages 8 and 13, felt comfortable and safe in the water throughout the entire experience thanks to our fantastic guides. The guides were knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure everyone felt included and had a great time. The snorkeling spot and Iguana Island were both incredible experiences that we won’t soon forget. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, memorable adventure for the whole family!
My partner and I had such a wonderful time on the 4-hour Group Half Day Snorkel Excursion! From the very beginning, everything was easy and enjoyable. We were picked up right on the beach near our hotel and headed straight out for the snorkeling portion of the tour. Although we didn’t see as many fish as we had hoped, the tour guides were fantastic and made us feel completely safe and comfortable throughout our time in the water. Their guidance and attentiveness really made a difference. A light lunch was provided, with the choice of a turkey or chicken sandwich and a bag of chips. There were also plenty of drinks available throughout the excursion, which was especially appreciated while spending the day in the sun. We had plenty of time to explore Little Water Cay (Iguana island) and enjoy the scenery. Before heading back, we also got to have some fun on the boat—everyone had the opportunity to jump off the diving board and go down the two waterslides! The 4-hour excursion was the perfect length—not too long and definitely not too short. It gave us enough time to snorkel, explore, relax, eat, and have some fun without feeling rushed. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend this excursion to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing half-day adventure in Turks and Caicos!** 🌴☀️💦
My wife and I had a great time with Island Vibe Tours! The crew was safe, fun, and friendly. We loved the snorkeling and getting to see some cool island sights. We'll be back to Turks, and this tour will be at the top of our list to do again.
We had the most INCREDIBLE day on the water with this boat tour company! There were 10 ladies enjoying a girls' trip in beautiful Turks & Caicos, and the snorkel excursion was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Chayenne & Tattoo were fantastic! Friendly, attentive, professional, and they made sure everyone felt comfortable and had plenty of rum punch & sandwiches. They even picked us up at our beach house, which was so nice that we didn’t have to drive anywhere. The snorkeling was so beautiful in the crystal clear waters and we were glad to have Chayenne guide us & point out sting rays and beautiful fish. If you're visiting Turks & Caicos, I highly recommend this company. They truly made our day special, and we would happily do it all over again.
So much fun! Their guide and captain were amazing hosts.
I joined the 4-hr tour on 9/11 and this was by far my favorite day/excursion from my entire trip to Turks. The guides were super friendly and funny, the boat was a good size with a slide and diving board, and not to mention the best rum punch! We had such a great time that we ended up booking them for a private charter immediately after the snorkeling excursion ended. We had the best time and were treated with the best hospitality. I look forward to joining another one of their trips if I ever return to Turks!
Great experience with a great crew. The Captain and Parker were very sweet and personable. They made us feel safe and comfortable. Parker swam out with us on the snorkeling trip, giving us a tour and making us all feel safe and having fun. The Captain was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to tailor the trip for us, going above and beyond what was in the plan. We were the only ones on the boat with teenage daughters and they made the whole group mesh together well and everybody had a great time together.
Highly recommend! The staff were absolutely fantastic - friendly, energetic, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire experience. They made the excursion so much fun and made sure everyone had a great time. We had an amazing experience and would definitely do it again!
Our family of 5 had the most wonderful time with Island Vibes! Captain Oliver, Manny, Alpha, and Stefan were excellent hosts and guides. Worth every penny and well orchestrated with each piece of the day. This excursion was a highlight of our trip to Turks!
This was my first snorkeling adventure and it didn’t disappoint. It unlocked a whole new world, it was magical. Capt. Oliver was fun, friendly, great music play list. Snorkeling pro Alpha helped to make me feel safe exploring this whole new world. It was a wonderful day, filled with new adventures, good music beats, moving across the water with the wind blowing my hair back. Amazing day!
We had a wonderful time and felt very safe! The snorkeling was great and then relaxing on the island was much needed. The rum punch was good too!
Amazing crew 💕 ; snorkeling 🤿 was great, iguana island a paradise, and at the end jumping in the water was the perfect final blast! Alpha and his teammates were simply incredible: knowledgeable, kind, and great and patient with kids. We felt safe and taken care of while having an amazing time. I would do it again and I’d recommend them to my friends and you! Don’t look any further! Have fun!
Amazing experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Great crew, fun way to explore beaches and area. Snorkeling was cool and Half Moon bay was a great stop.
Great time. Fun staff! Perfect stops of snorkeling, beach time on Iguana island and plenty of time to use the water slide and diving board to wrap up the four hours.
I highly recommend this experience. We did the snorkel experience. Captain and Crew were exceptional. People kept it lighthearted and were very easy-going and wildly hospitable. felt safe. The boat was very clean. There was a little something for everybody, including my wife who got quite scared out in the open snorkeling they kind of set her up later at the beach with Conor Water so that she could experience snorkeling Beachside in a safe manner that she felt comfortable for her first time the food was great to snack on the drinks were fresh and plentiful bathroom on board was very large and spacious and we didn’t feel cramped on a full boat. This would’ve been great. Had we come with our kids as well but it was just my wife and I they were families there as well of all ages and you simply cannot be seeing different parts of the island from the water pick up was really convenient. We were staying at the West Bay club. It’s about a four minute walk on the beach to the pick up spot in either direction for us, but they also did pick ups at other places just be sure to alert them before your pick up day of where you are staying in case they don’t stop their automatically for you. They will definitely accommodate you value for the money in my opinion was a 10 out of 10. I would’ve liked to see a little bit more of the area and do a little more exploring, but there’s only so much you can do right so highly recommended especially if you have a snorkel before you don’t have to feel pressured to snorkel either you can swim and observe there’s no pressure
Crew was friendly. However, only about 45 minutes is spent snorkeling. The remainder of the time is spent at a beach that they park at and tell you that you have over an hour there. Then you go out, go down a slide in the middle of the ocean for a while. Wish it would have been more snorkel spots. Was fun at first.
We had such a great time on our ATV/UTV tour in Turks and Caicos! It was definitely worth it and so much fun. We booked the tour the night before and needed transportation, so I emailed them and Nikole responded right away. They were able to pick us up the very next morning, which made everything so easy! The guys who led the tour were super nice and friendly. We also loved the lunch that was provided… Mr. Groupers was SO good! 😋 I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Turks and Caicos. It was a great experience from start to finish and we had an absolute blast!
Awesome excursion with fantastic crew - Alpha, Kumar and Captain Oliver were the best, with a special shout out to Kumar for showing us the best time snorkeling! Once he realized we were good swimmers, he showed us some special places in the reef to deep dive and let us do our thing. They showed us a great time! Highly recommend!!!
Such an amazing experience, perfect amount of time to relax and have fun. Rum punch was great and the water slide was so much fun. The captain’s Alpha, Kemar, and Oliver were all welcoming and made the tour unforgettable, definitely recommend this to all
Lots of good people great crew and the snorkeling was fantastic
Snorkel experience was awesome- like being in a giant aquarium. I’m not a great swimmer but life vest was provided. A bit difficult to navigate because you go pretty far from the boat in very deep water and it was choppy, but I am 49 and out of shape and still managed. Guide was patient and attentive. Rum punch was delicious and sandwiches were fine. Island you visit is really deserted feeling and beautiful. Sliding and diving off the boat in the end was a thrill for my teen son. I also went down the slide but was not brave enough to dive off the top of the boat. Boat was clean and very comfortable. All in all worth the money. Also, I noticed most folks were not tipping as they left the boat. Tip these guys- it’s the right thing to do. They are making sure you are safe and happy the whole trip. Turks is expensive to live in and this is their livelihood.
The captain and crew were awesome! Lots of fun! We enjoyed the snorkeling. We did wish we could’ve gone to more places to snorkel.
The crew was absolutely amazing, Capt Joey was very proud of his Island and very informative. He ensured his crew and the guests were engaged with music and dancing throughout the tour. Definitely would recommend and do again!!
It was a great day…..our first stop was snorkeling and that was a lot of fun. They we stopped at the Iguana island and chilled. They had sandwiches, snacks and a variety of alcoholic (rum punch and beer) and non-alcoholic drinks. As we thought we were just heading back, they dropped anchor so that we could spend about a half-hour going down the slide and jumping/diving off of the boat.
We loved our snorkeling trip. The coral was amazing, teeming with wild life. The stop at Iguana island was a nice pit stop and we had lots of fun jumping off the boat. Lunch was only a sandwich, so that could have been better, but otherwise the tour was terrific. We would definitely recommend the tour.
This was my third time snorkeling in TC and by far the BEST experience! The captain and crew were extremely hospitable, knowledgeable and fun. Emerald Reef was beautiful with a huge array of fish. We stopped for some water slide and diving fun from the boat. Also, drinks and food were in abundance. I rate THIS company and crew 20 out of 10.
Amazing! This is a must if in the Turks. We did the half day tour of snorkelling, visiting half moon bay and iguana island! Staff were amazing so attentive and friendly, they really made it! Thanks to all x
We had a fun morning, guys running the trip were super friendly, snorkling was good, stop off at Half Moon Bay was beautiful, while our son had a great time jumping off the boat and on the slide. Drink refreshments were plentiful, so overall was great trip.
This cruise was supposed to be a fun snorkeling adventure, but instead it turned into one of the most uncomfortable experiences I’ve ever had. As an African American LGBTQ+ traveler, I was openly discriminated against. The staff made it painfully obvious that they preferred serving European and Hispanic customers, giving them all the attention, friendliness, and support while completely disregarding us. We paid the same price as everyone else, yet we were treated like we didn’t belong there. The disrespect was so strong that we chose not to snorkel at all. We didn’t feel safe trusting our lives to people who had already shown they didn’t care whether we were comfortable, included, or even acknowledged. If you’re African American, please think twice before booking this cruise. No vacation is worth feeling invisible, unwelcome, or unsafe.
This excursion was fantastic for our family, including myself, wife and two young adult daughters. The crew was fun, knowledgeable and responsible for safety. The stops were great at a snorkeling reef, Half Moon Cay and a water stop for diving and slide. The only improvement would have been going to a location known for turtles as we did not see any, but this was still a 5/5 experience!
The snorkeling does require quite a lot of physical ability as the water can be rough and they take u out as a group. Be prepared for that It was 1 hour snorkel 1 hour chill 1 hour doing slides and jumps which was perfectly done. Stunning views They did run out of food. So my family Of 5 only had small Bags of chips
Very nice, we loved snorkeling
Well managed tour. Convenient pick up from our hotel was on time, the boat ride was great.. The Tour Guide guides helped us with our equipment and snorkeling was good. We had a great day! I would definitely recommend this tour group
This is our second time booking with this company! We all had an amazing time! Great vibes, great rum punch, and even better staff! We’ll definitely be back for a third time!
One of the best experience you will have in your lifetime worth the money worth the water experience. Make sure you take a GoPro because you will see lots of good things in the water number one vacation activity you’ll ever spend your money on nice people nice audience in the actual boat lots of good drinks and food. You will really enjoy this trip because it is the best in your lifetime personally for me. It is one of the best vacations I’ve ever had in my lifetime so please book this as your last activity before you go back because you will never get this opportunity again best water best view in the water and best experience ever. I got to jump off the boat in the deep water and had an amazing time so please, please please book this as your last resort and make this activity with a while. The crew m the boat was absolutely amazing, they know how to have a fun time. This was my first time snorkeling in the water and it was amazingly beautiful, had the best time, got really drunk, visited a small island, amazing water, got to take a lot of wonderful photos and video of the fishes. Food was good. If your a good swimmer then this is the best experience you will have in a left time. I would rate this 10/10. Especially because I love to swim in deep water. Hope this comment helps you. BEST VACATION EVER.
Great experience. The crew was entertaining. Even in the rain..... We will do it again when we come back!
The boat crew were friendly and professional. Loved the visit to Iguana Island and the short history lessons. Slide and diving board was the best part. I suggest bringing your own snorkel gear. The boat issued gear is a little old. Make sure to put your stuff in a dry bag.
Captain Palmer, Steph, and the team were amazing to ride with! I had the most incredible experience. Steph was so sweet and they all generously took photos of me. I went solo but they and other passengers on the boat made me feel welcomed. I will definitely book again when I travel to Turks in the future.
