This was an amazing tour for the money. The boat is well used (not new) and was larger than we needed for our small group of 4. There were 3 staff members along on the tour: Captain Frank, Bruce the diver and Stanley the guide. Frank, Bruce and Stanley were very friendly and attended to all our wants, and answered all questions. I thoroughly enjoyed watching Bruce dive for the conch, and watching him clean it for the ceviche (conch salad). Yum. Because we had a small group, we were able to see all the sites listed in the description of the tour plus a stop at Noah's Ark, a bar in the middle of the bay. We had a bonus - a shark swam by while we snorkeled. And let's not forget going down the slide into Grace Bay. I highly recommend this tour. It was the perfect tour to experience with friends. So relaxing.

Excellent experience. Loved it. Do it! Drinks, food, snacks, great crew. Snorkel with a pro. Go where you want. 100% recommend
Fantastic experience. Crew were so fun and accommodating and worked hard to make sure we had fun. Visited 3 locations all worth the time. This was the highlight of our vacation. Would definitely recommend this tour.
These guys were incredible hosts! Service was excellent. Thank you for the awesome afternoon on the water!
We had an incredible experience on this private catamaran tour in Providenciales! From start to finish, everything was seamless and well-organized. The boat was clean, spacious, and perfect for our group of 9—plenty of room to relax, enjoy the views, and take in the stunning turquoise water. The crew was the highlight—they were friendly, attentive, and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. They knew all the best spots and created a fun, laid-back atmosphere while still being professional. The stops along the way were beautiful, and we never felt rushed during the 4 hours. This was honestly one of the best parts of our trip to Turks and Caicos. If you’re traveling with a group and want something private, relaxing, and memorable, I highly recommend booking this tour. Worth every penny
This was the absolute best experience. The highlight of the week without a doubt. The captain and crew made sure we did everything we wanted to do. They customized the trip to make sure we could snorkel, find sand dollars, and see sea turtles. We even got to see some dolphins. It was a wonderful experience. I would book this over and over again. They also had snacks and even had live conch for a salad. Book this trip. You won’t be disappointed
Such a fun time, great crew! You can pretty much tell them what you’d like to do and they will accommodate. We had a blast!
Third time booking with captain Alvaro - love him and his crew. They are super friendly and helpful and let us customize our trip. They looked after our kids during snorkeling and slides. They prioritize safety which is a plus. Would book gracebay watersports before any other company for a private boat day.
We had a wonderful time on the catamaran. By far our best experience. Definitely a 5 out of 5. Our crew consisted of Jovan, Bruce, Stanley, & Gesyln and they were the best. They took care of our every need, and friendly.
I had the best experience with this company today. The gentleman working on the boat, along with the captain, went above and beyond to make our trip perfect by constantly checking in, offering drinks and snacks, and being incredibly attentive the entire time. Even being extra supportive with me going down the slide on the boat since I can’t swim! The guys are just GREAT! They took us to Noah’s Ark, the Shipwreck, the Sand Bar, and Iguana Island, and every stop was amazing. I highly recommend them, you really won’t regret it!
We had an absolutely awesome day on the Island Queen! We asked to reschedule because the seas were rough, and the captain and crew couldn’t have been more accommodating. They picked us up right on the beach at our resort and didn’t let us lift a finger—carrying our bags, towels, and shoes, and making sure our safety was the priority the entire time. We enjoyed the slide, snorkeling, and even watched the crew dive for conch, which they turned into fresh ceviche and cleaned the shells for us to take home. They brought us to the shallows for stunning views and some great shell collecting. A truly unforgettable experience. 10 out of 10 day!
We had the best day with the crew of Capt Frank, Sterling and Bruce. From the minute we got on the boat they were welcoming, took us snorkeling out to the reef, served food and drinks, and served us fresh conch. They even carried our bags to the car. We were able to snorkel, visit the shipwreck, dive for conch, and see baby sharks and iguana. What a wonderful day we will remember forever. Highly recommend.
such a great way to experience the best parts of Turks & Caicos! The captain and crew were so attentive and really made the entire boat ride all the better. The snorkeling stops were amazing, we made a stop to see sandbox and had such a great time!
We had the best time on our 4-hour private catamaran tour! The boat was beautiful, clean, the crew was so friendly, and the views were amazing. Loved the swimming and snorkeling stops, and the drinks and snacks were a great touch. Perfect way to spend the day—highly recommend!
We had an amazing time on our 4 hour excursion. The crew tailored the trip and offered great suggestions! We were able to snorkel, dive for conch, visit the sandbar, iguana island and chill in shallow water. Crew took care of our group of 9 from age 78 to 13. Picked us up at our resort. Highly recommend!
It’s the best. The captain and crew are fantastic. they catered to everything we wanted to do and took care of us the whole trip.
Wonderful private catamaran excursion! Professional, prepared, and kind crew! They made sure we had an amazing time :)
This four hour private excursion was the highlight of the whole family’s vacation. They picked us up right on our beach. Safety was a high priority for the captain and staff. We had 3 children and the staff was always looking out for everyone and made sure we were having a good time. The fresh conch ceviche was great! The snorkeling, dive for conch, and stop at half moon bay were awesome. We ended with trips down the slide. I would recommend this adventure to people of all ages. They will cater the stops to whatever you want. Thank you Grace Bay Watersports!
We were a family of six and wanted a private excursion. This was amazing! We snorkeled the reef, dove for conch, had ceviche fresh made with it. You create your own experience. The service was so good. A definite must do!!!!
Captain Juan and his crew on the island queen were absolutely amazing!!!! We had the best day ever. The boat was spacious, very clean and fully stocked with everything you could imagine from endless snacks, drinks and freshly caught conch. We explored Sand dollar cove, little cay iguana island and so much more. Highly recommend if you’re looking for an amazing experience!!
We had a great 4 hour cruise, stopping at a few great places. The crew was so friendly and took care of everything. Thank you!!
This tour was the best part of our trip. We booked the private tour for the option to customize and it did not disappoint. The boat crew was pleasant, especially Sterling.
This was the best part of our vacation and worth every penny! A crew of 3 for our family of 4, a personalized tour with great lunch and snacks!
Absolutely Amazing!!! The best day ever!! The captain and crew were so thoughtful and attentive. They went out of their way to make our day fantastic!! Highly recommend!!!
It was a nice day on the water. The staff were very attentive and accomadating. I guess I was just looking for me to see or do out on the water..
We arranged a private afternoon and enjoyed every minute of it! Gerard, Mark and Patrick were amazing - very pleasant and fun to spend the afternoon with. We would totally do it again. Thank you!!
Awesome crew great balance of fun interesting sights and always felt safe. Highly recommend this tour!! We went to the shipwreck, iguana island, Noah’s ark and to an area to snorkel and see dolphins. Great half day excursion
Best trip ever. The guys were so fun and tools us to a bunch of fun places. Would definitely recommend.
Hands down, this was the best excursion we’ve ever had! The boat and crew were great. The beaches, snorkeling, and views were incredible. Our drinks were kept full and the crew pointed gave us background on the areas we’re were visiting. It was worth every penny. We will remember this day forever!
Such a great crew and day, we did it twice! I highly recommend this charter for anyone who wants to experience T&C on the water, you won’t be disappointed.
The captain & crew were incredible! I celebrated my 30th Birthday with a group of friends, the crew got me a customized cake , stopped where wanted to stop and partied on the water ! The crew was so helpful and treated us like family ! They were professional and hospitable.
The crew was incredible and the sites were world class. I highly recommend the sandbar and the snorkeling.
Great time. They were very understanding, as we had originally booked Wednesday, but the weather was bad. Rescheduled without issues. The crew were fantastic. Captain Joao, Cedric and Alvaro catered to whatever our needs were. They suggested an itinerary and we rolled with it. Snorkeling, iguana island, sand dollar sand bar were awesome. Shipwreck is OK, but could do without. Alvaro is awesome at diving - we saw cool reefs, fish, lobster, etc. he also found some massive sand dollars for the kids. We got lucky and found a few dolphins in our trip. Overall great experience. Would do it again for sure.
The trip started with the boat picking us up at a dock by our villa. The captain and crew greeted us and confirmed what we were interested in doing for the afternoon. Of course we went with their recommendations. They took us to a local shipwreck, a few in party jumped off the upper deck of the wreck. On way to snorkeling we ran into a group of Dolphins and were able to get in water with them. Finished up in a nice scenic bay. The boat was the two level catamaran pictured on trip advisor, its every bit as clean and large as it seems. Plenty of room to be in sun and shade when needed. The food and drinks were great, played music we pre-downloaded and generally had a nice relaxing afternoon. Definitely a highlight to our trip to TCI.
Great time for adults. Make sure you download playlists for your phone before going as they have a bluetooth music player and there is no service on the water. They'll pick you up at one of the piers at Grace Bay which I found to be very convenient. The itinerary seems to be flexible so we could do what we wanted at our own pace.
We did this 4 hour tour through Grace Bay Watersports (Boat: Island Queen) and it was amazing. It's a motorized cataman type boat, and had a large slide off the back. It was a bit of overkill for 7 people (boat fits up to 50), but so luxurious and awesome. We went snorkeling at 2 different spots (one was a ship wreck/cargo boat) - the snorkeling was decent. The optional trip to Iguana island was TOTALLY worth it and everyone's favorite part b/c the water/beach was INCREDIBLY blue and amazing. We were on time and it was exactly 4 hours long, which we appreciated. The free drinks, fruit and food were great too. Had a trip of a lifetime! Plus, the staff helped take care of our 6-year old son really, really well (snorkeling near him to be safe, etc.). Thank you, Grace Bay Watersports!
Our 1st private boat experience was much better. Our 1st boat did Shell Island and Conch diving with ceviche. It was also much less expensive and a nicer boat. The crew was just ok. Would not choose again. Turks in total was a let down this time. Previous times was great but not so much this time.
This trip was the best part of our trip! Our crew was the best. Fernando got in the water with the kids and never let them out of his sight. Definitely would go on the trip again
This private tour was the highlight of our trip! The staff were fantastic, on time and very knowledgeable of the area. Highly recommended.
We had the best time on the Island Queen with Captain Claude and Fritz! They picked us up at our resort and took us to an amazing reef where we were able to snorkel and see so many amazing things. We had sea turtles all around us and at one time a sting ray swan directly under us. After that they took us to a shipwreck site where we snorkeled around the wreck and the kids were able to use the boats waterslide. Then they took us to an amazing sandbar with the most amazing beachfront and to top it off we were the only ones there. It was absolutely amazing to be in that beautiful of a place with just our family and no one else around. The crew was great with our family and the kids thought the same. I would highly recommend Grace Bay Watersports to anyone! Do not waste your time or money with a different operation you will not find a better set up.
Booked a private cruise for ten family and friends with a 2:00 start on 8 February so we could see the sunset. Weather wasn’t great which meant some of our party, those who suffer some seasickness, weren’t going to have a good day. So crew immediately replanned our day. We stayed out of the chop. Went to a different snorkeling spot, a different cruising route, a different island. Crew worked super hard to keep it fun and it worked. We had a great time despite choppy conditions. Many thanks to a great crew.
We had a blast on our boat! Snorkeled, jumped off boat had lunch! It was a blast! We saw a dolphin and a ton of turtles! We will do it again!
The boat tour was great for our family! The captain and crew were so much fun and knew all the right places to take us for a great day!
Great time! Awesome and fun crew! They totally catered to us and were great with the young kids. Best tour I have ever been on! Choose captain Claude and his mates !
Highly recommend this company for an awesome private boat excursion. Claude, Mark, and Chris, made our day unforgettable. They were very attentive, yet gave us our space, and showed us all around the island. Could not have asked for a better crew! Would definitely recommend booking and make sure you get this crew!
A group of us, 10 ppl, took a private 4 hr catamaran ride exploring the islands. The crew … Capt Clark, Mark, & Fritz … were professional, competent, very friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, and offered assistance whenever called upon. The boat … was very clean. We went touring of the islands, snorkeling, searching for shells, and using the water slide in a shallow part of one of the beaches. A great time was had by all. Would very highly recommend the crew and boat!!!
Loved the dolphins that swam by while snorkeling. The crew was fabulous! The slide was a lot of fun The water was magnificent
We had the best time ever! Fritz and Mark took excellent care of our group, with water, drinks, lunch and a great sense of humor. We had a smooth ride thanks to Captain Claude. I highly reccommed this tour!
Wow - best day ever! Very personalized service. Drinks and lunch, snorkeled with us to point out fish, took us to iguana island - so much more. Boat was great for sun bathing. Fritz and Mark were totally engaging. I won’t go back without spending a day with them!!!
We had an amazing experience on the Island Queen 4 hour tour. The team we had was amazing. Captain Claude ensured we had smooth sailing the entire trip. Fritz and Mark worked so hard to make sure our family was comfortable and well taken care of. We saw iguanas at iguana island and snorkeled around a shipwreck. This was the highlight of our trip and we would definitely book again
