Full Day Cruise from Providenciales with Snorkeling and BBQ Lunch

This is an easygoing 8-hour day on the water, designed for guests who want to see more of Turks and Caicos without overloading their schedules. You’ll head out by boat from Providenciales and spend the day cruising, swimming, eating, and relaxing at a comfortable pace.

The morning starts with a scenic ride along the coast. The shoreline slowly fades as the water opens up, and you’ll notice how clear it gets once you’re away from land. The first stops of the day are two snorkeling locations. Each spot is a little different, with coral, fish, and plenty of space to explore. Snorkeling gear is provided, and there’s no pressure to get in if you’d rather stay on board and enjoy the view. Many guests do a mix of both.

Between stops, the boat crosses the Caicos Banks, where the water is shallow and calm, stretching out in every direction. One highlight is a stop at Iguana Island, where you can step ashore and see native rock iguanas up close in their natural environment. It’s a short visit, but a memorable one.

Around midday, the boat pulls up to an uninhabited cay for a beach barbecue lunch. Food is served right by the water, and drinks from the open bar are available while you eat, rest, or walk along the sand. There’s no rush here. It’s time to cool off, recharge, and enjoy being somewhere quiet and undeveloped.

The afternoon wraps up with a relaxed cruise back toward Providenciales. By the time you return, you’ll have spent a full day seeing reefs, islands, and open water, with just the right balance of activity and downtime.
