MLJS Posted February 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Due to high winds and lots of rain, our stop in Bimini aboard the Valiant Lady was canceled. Instead, they were able to arrange a stop in Grand Turk. We arrived in Grand Turk at 7am on what was suppose to be our second sea day. The weather was beautiful.

MLJS Posted February 14, 2023 Author #2 Share Posted February 14, 2023 The port area was awesome. There were hundreds of chairs available. All are FREE except for a few places where umbrellas were set up with the chairs in the first two rows by the water. There is little shade. But you can move the chairs around under the palm trees. We found a spot to right of the pier that provided a little shade. The restaurant next door had some great music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLJS Posted February 14, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted February 14, 2023 There are shops, including a craft market with items made locally. There is a small section with the history of John Glenn splashing down at Grand Turk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all were. But my understanding is if you are not vaccinated, you cannot go ashore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisegal40 Posted February 17, 2023 #10 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Thank you for this and the pictures. We went here years ago and loved it. Glad we are going again this April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Bound4Bermuda Posted February 21, 2023 #11 Share Posted February 21, 2023 You saw all this walking around from the pier? We booked Carnival’s “Island Vibes and Beach Getaway” excursion. But now I’m thinking we can save the $175 and just walk around on our own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
