Jet Skiing to History: Our Family Adventure to the La Famille Shipwreck

When I heard about the La Famille Shipwreck Tour, I knew it was the perfect opportunity for a family adventure. With promises of history, marine life, and the thrill of jet skiing, I couldn’t resist booking this unique experience.

Setting Sail from Southside Marina

Our adventure began at the bustling Southside Marina, a place that seemed to hum with the energy of the sea. As a family travel writer, I always look for activities that can engage both adults and kids, and this tour promised just that. The marina itself is steeped in maritime history, and as we received our safety briefing and jet ski instructions, I could feel the excitement building in my kids. They were eager to hop on the jet skis and explore the open waters.

The guides were incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating tidbits about the local history and the significance of the marina. We snapped some pre-tour pictures with our jet skis, capturing the anticipation and joy on our faces. It was the perfect start to what promised to be an unforgettable family adventure.

Discovering the La Famille Shipwreck

Jet skiing across the crystal-clear waters of the Caicos Banks was an exhilarating experience. The wind in our hair and the sun on our faces made us feel alive and free. Our first stop was the La Famille Express Shipwreck, a hauntingly beautiful relic of the past. The ship had been firmly planted in the shallow waters during Hurricane Frances in 2004, and it was fascinating to see how nature had reclaimed it.

The kids were thrilled to explore the area around the shipwreck, discovering the marine life that now called the boat home. We took countless photos, capturing the unique scenery and the awe on our faces as we stood before this massive, rusting giant. It was a moment of wonder and learning, as we discussed the history of the ship and the power of nature.

Returning to Southside Marina

As our adventure came to a close, we jetted back to Southside Marina, reflecting on the incredible sights and fascinating history we’d encountered. The return trip offered a final chance to admire the beautiful coastline, and we took a few more photos to remember the day by.

Back at the marina, we shared our favorite moments and laughed about our jet ski antics. It was a day filled with bonding, learning, and pure joy. The La Famille Shipwreck Tour was more than just an activity; it was an experience that brought us closer together as a family. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and engaging family adventure in the Turks and Caicos.
