Shore Excursions Best Price Guar
Grand Turk, the capital of the Turks and Caicos Islands, is a small island bursting with turn-of-the-century Caribbean charm, retaining the look and feel of the Caribbean 40 years ago. Grand Turk was founded by Bermudan salt rakers some three centuries ago and its Bermudan-British-colonial architecture surrounded by colorful local dwellings make the island a treasure to visit. It is recognized as being one of the first places in the New World where Christopher Columbus landed and also gained worldwide attention when John Glenn splashed down near Grand Turk on his historic first mission to space. Grand Turk is six miles long and just over a mile wide with a population of only 6,000. It is blessed with miles of uncrowded, beautiful beaches and is close to several uninhabited cays such as Gibb's Cay, home of the stingray encounter. While there are many landside attractions to explore such as the Old Prison, Lighthouse Park, and the re-created salt salina, the real beauty of the island lies underwater. Grand Turk is world-famous for its healthy and beautiful coral reefs that surround the island, stretching almost from the coastline to the 7,000-foot vertical wall just offshore.
I recall when the Turks and Caicos asked to be part of Canada and they were turned down. Was that a big mistake? I am not sure but it would be nice to have our own tropical paradise.

This is our last port day and because Ken so loves the sea and the water we have made plans to go to Bajeri Beach.
We have been in this port before and we know there will be no problem getting to the beach
This is the description given by Princess.
Spend the day at one of Grand Turk's premier beaches and enjoy the ample amenities while you have fun in the sun. At your leisure, meet your open-air shuttle transportation at the Cruise Center and travel through Cockburn Town en route to Bajari Beach, a tropical oasis. Sparkling sands, turquoise waters and all the amenities you could wish for greet you. This beach escape includes a water trampoline, beach volleyball, chaise-lounges, a lively beach atmosphere, a Wi-Fi area and games for the kids. Bajari Beach has its own watersports center, so if you have always wanted to try to snorkel, here is your chance! Rent all the gear you need, then take to the warm waters filled with tropical fish and vibrant coral. When hunger strikes, visit the well-stocked snack bar and take a moment to peruse the lively souvenir shop. You may return via shuttle service at you leisure
