WHAT YOU VISIT

Whale Watching Adventure
Witness these amazing creatures in their natural wild habitat as you zoom across Grand Turk's glistening waters. From the beach, you'll board a whale watching vessel and set off in search of the humpback whale. Each winter, from late January through early April, humpback whales pass by Grand Turk as they make their tremendous journey from the Caribbean to New England. Hear the whale song through a hydrophone while an on-board whale expert provides fun and informative interpretations of the humpback whale's behaviors and answer your questions. Once whales are spotted, your captain will maneuver the boat so you'll have the best views of these astonishing mammals without disturbing them.

PHOTO OPPORTUNITY
Keep your camera at the ready, you may see dolphins, porpoises, or hawksbill turtles and even witness a humpback whale breaching or slapping the water with its fins and the elevated fly-bridge offers a higher vantage point.

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
Marvel at Mother Nature's majesties as the captain sets a course that maximizes maximum viewing.

Special Notes:

Minimum age allowed is 6 years old. You will be visiting the whales in their natural environment; whale sightings are likely but are not guaranteed. Bottled water and rum punch are offered.
