How far is Jacks Shack from port? An easy walk?

 

As posted, maybe a ten-minute walk along the beach.

 

Look off on the port side as you approach the pier. You'll see a half-sunken ship followed by a small commercial pier; that's Governor's Beach behind the ship. Just to the right of that pier is Jack's Shack. When you get to the cruise pier you'll see Margaritaville to its immediate left, and you can simply walk through M'Ville to the beach and down to Jack's Shack. You can also walk along the road that goes north (left) from the cruise center. Easy-peasy.

What is Jack's Shack?

 

It's a bar and restaurant on the beach at Grand Turk, owned by expatriate Americans and known for a friendly staff, an even friendlier dog (the legendary Topher), and a more laid-back "feel" than Margaritaville.

Actually Janet is an ex-pat Canadian :)

We have been to Jacks in the past but have only had drinks there. How is the food? Anything that's their specialty?

We ate at Jack's when we were there. Had the Jerk Chicken and Conch Fritters. Really good. My kids and I are not fans of spicy things and we didn't find it spicy at all. Can't wait to go back!!
