bloops Posted March 26, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2010 We will be on a cruise in June, 2010 with 11 family members. We want to snorkel when we visit Grand Turk. Can anyone recommend a snorkel tour that would take us on a private trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce-r Posted March 26, 2010 #2 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Bluewater Divers offers private snorkel trips. I know they do a good job with the dive trips, so you should have an equally fine time snorkeling with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putterdude Posted March 27, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 27, 2010 There were 5 of off the Grand in January who did a snorkel excursion with Mitch and his Blue Water Divers....they were great and will likely use them when we are back next year. http://www.grandturkscuba.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharks48 Posted April 14, 2010 #4 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Totally agree about using Blue Water Divers. We had a group of only four, put together from the roll call board, and had our own private excursion to three sites, including "the Wall". Outstanding!! And Audrey is terrific!!

Mary Ellen1 Posted April 18, 2010 #5 Share Posted April 18, 2010 ... and another vote for Blue Water Divers. They were fantastic when we snorkeled with them last November. DH & I were the only snorkelers they had that day, so we had an ultra-private snorkel tour to 2 sites: The Wall, and another shallower area with lots & lots of fish. Book 'em -- you won't go wrong!

We are a party of four and would like to do a snorkel excursion. I'd rather only go with snorkelers. Do you know if they have a snorkel only trip or the minimum for a private tour?

I'd rather only go with snorkelers. Do you know if they have a snorkel only trip or the minimum for a private tour? Thanks The boat was fine. Adequate to the task. I wouldn't call it "nice," because when I think "nice boat," my mind goes to 30' cabin cruisers... :) The boat we were on had shade. It was a metal boat with bench seats along the sides; the back half was shaded. We got lucky & had a private snorkel trip for just the 2 of us, but we didn't book it that way -- that's just how it worked out because we were the only snorkelers that day. You'd have to contact them to see what they'd charge for a private snorkel-only trip. Here's a picture of one of their boats, from their website: http://www.grandturkscuba.com/i/galleries/topside/beach1.jpg Ours was similar, but not the same boat. Like I said, our boat had shade on the back half, not the front half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loves2cruz Posted May 8, 2010 #8 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Thanks. I guess I was hoping for something more like a catamaran or motorized sailing type vessel. Perhaps I will give them a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frequent Floater Posted May 8, 2010 #9 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I am looking to also do a private charter for a group of 20+ adults. Looking to go to Gibbs Cay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, their boat is merely transportation to get you to the snorkel & dive spots. The boat is not part of the attraction (unlike some of those party catamaran-type excursions...)

Seems like there are not many that will do independent tours. Good Luck and post here if you find something else so I can also check them out please.W: http://www.bohioresort.com E: info@bohioresort.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
