Once in a Life Time. - Captain Waldy and First Mate, Alpha led us on a beautiful adventure! It was a memory for a lifetime.
The first sighting on our snorkel trip was a delightful sea turtle. Alpha skillfully led us through the beautiful sites of the reef. He made our trip fun and safe for the most experienced snorkelers and the newbies.
A champagne toast and we were off for a ride through the amazing turquoise waters of the bay. Captain Waldy located the Island's favorite porpoise, JoJo. The Captain skillfully used the boat's wake to invite JoJo to play with us. We were enthralled and smiling from ear to ear as we watched JoJo swim and jump in our wake for several minutes!
We bid JoJo goodbye and boated on, until we pulled ashore on a beautiful, romantic and uninhabited beach. We leisurely walked the shore and the cliffs. There were several opportunities for taking amazing photos.
Our sunset ride back was the perfect ending for the perfect afternoon. We raised our glasses of rum punch in a toast to Captain Waldy, mate Alpha, and this amazing tropical paradise! As we soaked in the beauty of this place, we recognized how fortunate we were to have this amazing memory.

Fun and Memorable Parasailing Excursion - Our excursion with Island Vibes Tours was a highlight of our trip to Turks and Caicos! Our entire group loved our guides, Oscar and Richard, who were personable and extremely attentive to safety. The parasailing was spectacular, we saw the reef and lots of fish perfectly while snorkeling, and learning to "subwing" was a new and exciting activity. Oscar and Richard were skilled in managing the boat and us and shared fun trivia with us along the way. We even had a great snack near the end of our tour.
We have recommended this excursion to everyone who has asked and would do it again! I'd like to add also that after forgetting my hydro flask bottle on their boat, much needed during my visit, they even returned it to my hotel the next day since their office was closed. Incredible service!
Give them a try! You'll be glad you did.

Top notch parasailing in Turks and Caicos - We booked this private 4hr parasail excursion with Viator and it exceeded all of our expectations. We stayed at a private villa but had a car to drive to Bight beach where the pick-up was, there was plenty of parking. I don't know if this tour offered a pick-up in Grace Bay or not, but most do.
Since we had already been snorkeling and we wanted to see the famous ship wreck, we headed over to that side of the island. The weather was much better there based on wind direction anyway. Our group really set the entire schedule for the tour, first parasailing, then we went to Iguana Island and enjoyed both the Atlantic and Caribbean oceans. Then we headed to Noah's Arc to enjoy music and perhaps see Drake. We did get to see a Canadian rapper "Nav" on his boat a few times as well as a dolphin on the tour. There were plenty of drinks available, the food was pretty basic but enjoyable. Richard and Oscar guide and driver for the tour, they were both great. We felt extremely safe, well taken car of, and they were very flexible and open to what we wanted to see and do, and the music we listened to.

Great Experience - We had the best time with Emilio and Oscar! We got to parasail, snorkel, visit Iguana Island, and subwing. The food was good and the rum punch was even better. We even got great sunset pictures at the end. Highly recommend this tour!

Fun and Sun with Family - My family (4) and my brother's family (5) took this private excursion for our families. Our kids ages range from 8 - 16 and this tour had everyone satisfied. Both Richard and Enrique were informative, compassionate (my nephew was very adverse to the parasailing and snorkeling but in the end did try the parasailing) and pleasant to work with. We started out snorkeling, then went to Little water cay for about 1 hour then ended the trip with parasailing. A nice spread of chips/wraps/fruits were provided along with beer, rum punch, water and sodas. Would definitely recommend this to any family who wanted to enjoy the water activities of TCI.

Best Activity in Turks and Caicos - My family and I had the most amazing 4 hour private adventure with Emilio and Elian. They were so kind, professional, helpful, and just a blast to spend the 4 hours with. I recommend this activity to every family vacationing in Turks and Caicos. They picked us up at the beach right in front of our hotel and the fun and adventure started right away. We were able to choose our activities. We parasailed, snorkeled, went to Iguana Island, and they taught us to subwing which was a TOTAL BLAST! They fed us and provided us with soda and water. We didn't partake of the rum punch. :) You will not be disappointed if you do this tour!

Worth doing. A little pricey for private tour. - Oscar and Richard did a get job. We had choppy waters and they navigated it well. Even with rough waters the snorkeling was pretty good. Saw some turtles, which my girls loved. My kids loved the parasailing!

Great time with really fun guides - Planned for a couple sours is parasailing and got so much more. The parasailing was great but we also toured Iguana Island, snorkeled out at the drop-off, did a wake board-like activity they got us 20 feet underwater with goggles to see even more sea life. Richard was a tremendous guide who also told us about a festival happening that night in town. Our whole family went and had a ball. This outing was the highlight of a great week form our daughters (teens and 20’s). Highly recommend.

Best Experience Ever - We had an amazing time on our tour! We were able to customize our day with the private tour and Richard and Carlee accommodated all our requests. The main thing we wanted to see was sea turtles and they spotted a bunch for us. We were able to swim with the turtles and see really unique fish. I would highly recommend booking a tour especially with Richard and Carlee!
