Beautiful must see of Turks Ocean Vibes - This is the most memorable excursion that everyone should experience while in Turks!!! They give great directions on where to meet and time. We had Edan, Angelo and I can’t remember the 3rd gentleman name that I can’t remember but they all were excellent tour guides!!! They take you to the must sees of Turks: grace bay cove and all the gorgeous sites along there…snorkeling in the gorgeous reef where we did see sharks and beautiful array of beautiful fish and it was plenty of time to snorkel around!!! Once back on the boat they had plenty of food which is sandwiches and fresh fruit and plenty of assortment of drinks and alcohol. While your eating they are playing the most up to date music and taking you into the next location the iguana’s island but please take in views on the top level!!! The water is so Clear, Blue, and Beautiful. You don’t have to go on the island you can just swim in the beautiful ocean!!! Next stop is the sandbar that is amazing!!! You have to see it for yourself!!! Beautiful beautiful beautiful!!! Thank you guys for this amazing experience!!! Ocean Vibes is the best!!!!

Great experience - Wonderful experience. Highly recommend. Guys were wonderful. Very nice and clean boat. Great way to spend 4-5 hours on the ocean. I usually get motion sickness, but not on the catamaran.

A Must! - This tour was great! I took my two daughters (teen/young adult). We had a wonderful time. We weren't staying at a resort, but catching the boat was easy as they pulled up to the beach right off a public parking lot. The caterman was great, we could sit anywhere! The crew were super nice and respectful of the ocean, reef and all the passengers. If I'm ever back in T&C, I'll be booking this trip again!

Incredibly, awesome, sobering and relaxing - The entire tour was excellent however when the catamaran turn around and sailed in the direction of the sunset the moment and the feeling was incredible as just everyone was in awe of the sunset and the incredible glow as that emanated from the setting onto the waves

August 2021 - We were able to swim with dolphins in the wild! Amazing experience! The best crew-Captain Wayne, Reggie and Manuel!! Took amazing photos and shared them! Great snorkeling off the reef, very informative when we were cruising along the shore. A perfect day with a perfect crew! Lunch and drinks were awesome too! Wish we were here longer we would book another tour with them! Could not have asked for a more perfect outing!

Bittersweet - I’m only writing this review because I received an automated request to do so. I’ve waited about 6 weeks so I can be fair. There were about 20 people on our boat. I’d guess the boat can take maybe 120. There was a captain and one deckhand (Angelo). Angelo was fun and entertaining while we were out. The booze and beer selection was great. The three stops were ok, iguana island was a bit boring tho. As we were all getting off the boat, I tipped Angelo $100 for our small group of 5 and about 30 seconds later as I was attempting to get off the boat onto the dock, the portable stairs inside the boat shot out from under me and I fell onto my left thigh, hard, onto the edge of the boat. After I cried out in intense pain, Angelo ran over, and I looked at him and said something to the effect of “how could this happen?”. His response: “ we’re short staffed”. Maybe so Angelo, but you could have been by the stairs helping people. Hey Angelo…. those stairs are dangerous. They should not move. I was in severe pain for weeks, I’m not kidding. It took almost a month to get back to normal. Please make sure this doesn’t happen to someone else. Instead of emailing me for a review, you should have emailed me an apology. Well, here’s the review. Without the injury, 5 stars.
