We were not impressed with this tour. While the guide seemed friendly he didn't really talk during the tour and give us any history or information about the ocean and sealife. We also did not receive the correct pictures that we paid for.

It was amazing both guys were very knowledgeable they took us right to all the amazing hotspots, and we probably seen twenty turtles . I recommend this to everyone.We will visit again
A great snorkeling experience without getting wet. Knowledgeable and helpful guide and the trip was the right length at 75 minutes. The only improvement I recommend is directions as to where you are located within the marina. There were no signs and I walked around twenty minutes until finding them.
We had a great time! We saw lots of turtles and the reef without snorkeling. Our guides were great and it was a highlight of the trip!
Great experience with skilled and knowledgeable tour guide Stephen. Calm clear water allowed up close views of several rare turtles, angel fish, barracuda Boat has a Bluetooth speaker so we were able to listen to our playlist while exploring. Cold water and soft drinks provided. Great excursion! Fun for staying dry while enjoying a snorkeling experience.
We had a wonderful time. We saw many turtles, stingray, batfish, many other kinds of colorful fish. The Captain and his assistant were very informative and helpful. We had our pictures taken and were able to purchase them. We would do again. Thank you!
Fun seeing fish and turtles through the clear bottom of the boat. Great guides who were friendly and knowledgeable. Directions to find the boat need to be refined. Our taxi dropped us in the center of the marina and we had to ask three people for help. Directions should say “Immediately upon entering the Marina on your Right Hand Side before you get to Mango Reef Restaurant on you left, you will see a walk path and we are located along …
It’s a great way to see turtles and fish ! Very nice knowledgeable men . Highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!!
The tour guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and courteous. We saw LOTS of sea turtles, reef fish, different types of coral and even a sea cucumber!
Try enjoyable experience! Knowledgeable guide + photographer ( Romario) and captain (Christian)
Great experience! The staff is knowledgeable. Not only did we see sea life but we actually got facts and information associated with it. The boat stayed a great temperature. We saw plenty of fish and turtles and other sea life. It was amazing!
There were a bunch of little kids running all over the boat, generally blocking my view of the glass bottom. There were plenty of turtles and coral and fish, but with kids laying down at my feet, the good shots were always elusive. The guides shot a bunch of photos of us, and silly me, I thought maybe they would e-mail them to us. But no, they said we could buy them for $84 each. If I knew that up front, I wouldn't have wasted so much time posing. All in all, it wasn't a horrible experience, but it didn't achieve its fullest potential.
Our tour today was wonderful. The high winds made for a bumpy ride but were still able to see lots of coral, fish and even a few turtles out there! Was a great experience
This was a fun tour. The crew was extremely knowledgeable - they knew the name of every fish that we saw. We were very surprised by the number of sea turtles! We saw about 20 on our tour. You have to remove your shoes in order to get on the boat, so I would recommend bringing socks.
Fun experience! Would recommend this adventure especially for families. Our children are adult children and enjoyed this very much. But younger children would really love this!
They didn't show up at the meeting point... we're wasting Christmas day because of them. We have waiting for one hour and they don’t answer at the phone and on top at the store they are very rude
This was an awesome experience. The staff was phenomenal and very knowledgeable. This is a must do if you visit Turks!
Our boat captain & his assistant Dillon were excellent in providing information to everyone’s questions & in guiding the boat to coral reefs & sea turtle locations
Amazing experience! I have never been on a boat before so I was a little scared, but the boat guides were very attentive and helpful! They offered waters and juices to hydrate, gave some nice conversations and small talk while educating on the turtles around and the island. Overall amazing!
The crew were nice and professional. It is nice and convenient if you don’t want to get in the water. It is really pricey and not worth the cost in my opinion. You stay in one small area for most of the ride. There will be a gentleman taking pictures of you on the boat, BE AWARE this photos and not free, so I advise you just take your own. Photo packages are expensive as well.
Staff is knowledgeable and fun to be with. Lots to see at the reefs (coral, fish, turtles, etc.) Staff taken boat photos can be purchased for a few at the end.
The boat itself is breathtaking, as well as the sea and its underwater residents. Both operators were truly knowledgeable about the sea and had great energy! Highly recommend. P.s one of them is a great photographer 📸
Bethanee and Stephen were phenomenal. I had a great experience and got to see a decent amount of turtles. This was perfect for me because I didn't want to do a glass kayak excursion due to an injury but was able to get a similar experience by doing the glass boat tour.
We had a great time. The boat is so sharp to be able to see everything so clearly. We saw many turtles, fish and beautiful coral. The staff were wonderful and gave us so much information. This made our vacation special. Thank you!
This was a last minute addition to my itinerary in Turks and Caicos and I’m so happy I did it. Wonderful, laid back, educational and a lot of fun. Goal 1 for my trip to Turks and Caicos was turtles. We saw well over a dozen of them … I lost count. The guys running the show were funny and accommodating …. they were GREAT! The other planned outing on my trip was nice, but turtles were few and far between and photo ops were difficult at best … it was also really crowded. Choose this trip first!!! And if you read this, what is the name you guys gave to the turtle missing a leg … Tom or Jerry …. he’s my next tattoo. Thanks again! Michael
Was fabulous, so much fun! Saw so many turtles and colourful fish. 🐠 the guides were wonderful, could not ask for two nicer guys. Would highly recommend.
Our First time here, and the boat guides were super nice, helpful, and hilarious. I recommend these guys! 100% lots of information.
It was wonderful to see all the marine life especially several large green turtles. The captain sure knew how to handle the all plexiglass boat in rather choppy conditions. Despite the choppy sea, we were able see to many fish, coral, sponges etc. The captain and crew were pleasant and informative.
The clear water boat tour was a wonderful and one of a kind experience and Mario and Steve were great and entertaining tour guides!!
Awesome boat tour located in Turtle Cove, a 10 min drive from Grace Bay. Clean boat with complimentary refreshments. Tour guide and captain were friendly and very knowledgeable about the reef, wildlife and the island. We go to Turks every year and are highly considering doing this again as it is quite the experience seeing the reef without having to get in the water. Saw many fish, sea turtles and cool coral. Definitely recommend and probably great for families! They took some nice photos of us as well.
Pretty expensive to see zero fish but giving it 4 stores because the crew who took us out were very friendly and engaging. I would recommend if you don’t mind spending the money on a nice boat ride on an acrylic boat.
This tour was so much fun! The guides were hilarious, fun and accommodating. We got to see numerous sea turtles and fish and lots of coral. Sadly, most of the reef is dead or recovering from recently being dead... Thanks carbon industry. 😕 We felt better about this method of seeing the reef since we never touched it or introduced sunscreen into the water to manage the reef. Anyway, the only thing that could have made the tour any better is if the guides were a little more accurate with their information about the ecosystem, flora, and fauna. Definitely recommend this experience!
Loved the clear boat concept... It gave the experience of snorkeling without getting wet! Very knowledgeable staff who truly love what they do.
The clear boat is a beautiful and unique way to view the ocean & marine life. The captain called it "dry snorkeling". The clear boat is spacious and clean. The crew was friendly and fun. They offered plenty of drinks (soda, water, beer, etc.). We had a small group, so I was relieved they didn't cancel the tour. The manager helped us find a taxi when the tour was over.
If you can't swim or don't wanna snorkel this the best thing to do!!! Crew was amazing and helpful and very knowledgeable!!!!
The BEST Experience and the highlight of our trip! Terrific Crew and Amazing Service! We were so pleased and the tour guides really also gave the best feedback on the Island! Will do this again!
Had a great morning on this tour! The guides were wonderful and the views through the clear bottom boat were spectacular!
The view of the ocean was absolutely amazing. The crew were very friendly and knowledgeable about the fish we were seeing. We saw turtles, schools of fish, reefs and other aquatic life that we hadn’t seen before. They allowed us to play our music playlist and we had a really great time. We would definitely do this experience again.
Great trip! Really cool experience and views of clear and calm waters. Turtles fish and reefs were beautiful.
They were really nice! Had a good time. Knew their stuff. Very unique experience. I would recommend. Just need a way there and back. Thanks for the good time!
Highly recommend! I wanted to experience a clear boat excursion but not a kayak. I came across this excursion on TripAdvisor and booked it immediately. I loved that the group was not too big. They also provide drinks and photos for no additional cost. Would 1,000x do this again! Thank you for an amazing experience!!
This clear boat tour was so very cool! We saw lots of fish, turtles, coral, etc. Captain Provi and the tour guides Steven and Romario were fun and knowledgeable and answered all my various questions about marine life. They helped my mother on and off the boat with ease and sang Happy 80th Birthday to her. Romario took several photos which we await via email and he even jumped into the water to get my daughter’s phone which fell into the water at the dock! I highly recommend doing this tour…and it’s great for all ages, young and elder!
Romario, Steven, and Captain Provie were so much fun! And funny! We saw some beautiful fish and they were able to tell us what each was and a little fun fact. We enjoyed “dry snorkeling” as Romario and Steven call it. 😁😁
This was an absolutely wonderful experience! Loved how the boat was totally clear and you could see the ocean bottom, fish, Turtles, stingrays, and coral everywhere! It was an amazing trip!!
This was amazing excursion! The crew was knowledgeable and so delightful. Total recommend going!! Saw so many amazing sea creatures!
Steven and Damario were super fun! They helped my cousin on the boat and they took tons of pictures for us. We saw a bunch of coral, fish, & sea stars. We got to play our own music and they gave us refreshments. I would definitely do this tour again!
Mario and Steven were great tour guides. They were friendly and very knowledgeable about the wildlife. We saw so many sea turtles! Easily the best part of my trip to TCI.

The guides (Romario and Steven?) were great, they got us to the coral areas where we saw plenty of turtles and schools of fish. They were also very knowledgeable about the various sea life we were seeing. It was a wonderful time.
We took the clear boat tour with our three kids (8, 5, and 6 months). We had been searching for a family friendly boat excursion and came across this amazing boat. The boat is gorgeous and as our daughter said, “it feels like I’m walking on water!” The experience is mesmerizing for kids and a great alternative to snorkeling if you have small kids. We rode out to 2-3 different areas and it was smooth the whole way. At the reefs we saw turtles, fish, and even a shark! The crew are wonderful, knowledgeable and kind. It was a chilled out experience but a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend for families!
