stacimcc Posted August 20, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 20, 2022 We're looking into snorkeling while here, preferably booking with a local company, in October. I do not see any recent posts about local tour companies offering it, so would anyone have any recommendations? Are there any local reefs worth seeing?

We will be at GT in June and love to snorkel. Would be open to local guide, ship excursion or doing our own thing. Don't really want to lug my old snorkel gear on the cruise, but I heard somewhere that COVID reduced the places that rent gear.

Robpuffdaddy Posted February 28, 2023 #4 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I went like 8 years ago, went thru a local tour company cheaper. Yes I know your not protected by Carnival and if something happens the ship could leave you if you were on a non Carnival tour, but the ship is right there. Will not happen. I can not recommend anyone specific, but Grand Turk is one the best places to snorkel. The water is crystal clear and the highlight is the "Wall" the area where they take you. your in like 20 feet of water or shallower and then all of a sudden there is a wall the edge of the earth and it drops to pitch darkness. It is incredible. Lots of fish to see!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dropped our stuff back at the room went up to get a burger from Guys and before we ordered the ship was pulling away . If you do do an excursion with a different vendor make sure they have plenty of time from when the excursion ends and that you need to be back.
