Exclusive Supreme Snorkeling Tour
Overview
Get away from the crowds and join Exclusive Escapes for a small-group snorkeling experience designed around comfort, safety, and open-water exploration. Board one of our vessels directly from Grand Turk’s beachfront and enjoy a relaxed tour with friends or family.
The experience begins with snorkeling at a single designated reef site, selected by the captain based on real-time sea conditions to provide optimal visibility and safety. This reef stop features coral formations and marine life representative of Grand Turk’s surrounding waters.
Following the snorkeling portion, the tour continues to Gibbs Cay—an uninhabited island known for its powdery white sand and shallow turquoise flats—where guests can enjoy time in the water alongside stingrays that naturally inhabit the area.
Along the way, guests may observe the captain free diving for live conch. Upon arrival at Gibbs Cay, our team will conduct a live conch demonstration and prepare fresh conch salad to enjoy.

What To Expect
You and your guests will board a boat and set off to snorkel the beautiful turquoise waters surrounding Grand Turk. Join us as we explore a designated reef site, selected by our captain based on current sea conditions to ensure safety, water clarity, and an optimal snorkeling experience. This single reef stop features coral formations and marine life that reflect the natural beauty of Grand Turk’s surrounding waters.
Following the snorkeling portion of the tour, we continue with a scenic 30–35-minute boat ride to Gibbs Cay. This uninhabited island, known for its powdery white sand and shallow turquoise flats, offers the secluded island experience many envision when vacationing in Grand Turk.
Along the way to Gibbs Cay, our captain will free dive for live conch.
Once at the island, you’ll have the opportunity to interact with the stingrays that gracefully glide through the shallow waters. Gibbs Cay provides a rare and unforgettable encounter with these magnificent creatures in their natural environment.

The answers provided below were previously given in response to questions from Cool Destinations customers.
Filter by:
Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All Cool Destinations snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.
For these reasons, we believe that even non-swimmers can have a wonderful time on our snorkeling trips, however, the final judgment call is yours to make. Please note we do not give refunds if you decide not to snorkel on the trip.
Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on Cool Destinations tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use. However, if you feel more comfortable using your own snorkeling equipment, feel free to bring it on the tour. Please note, there is no discount for providing your own equipment and we can’t be responsible for any lost or damaged items.
May 2023First-time snorkelers can be assured of one-on-one instruction and assistance. We find introducing folks to our world very rewarding!
Oct 2021There are no legal age limits for snorkeling. We have found that age 5 or 6 is a good age to learn the basics of snorkeling, however, it’s entirely up to individuals to make the best choice for their family.
Sep 2021If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
