Providenciales: Private Boat Charter Grace Bay & Snorkel
Charter a Private Boat in Turks and Caicos Without the Group
You get a private boat, a snorkel stop at the Third Largest Reef, a beach break at Half Moon Bay with rock iguanas, lunch, unlimited drinks, and hotel pickup and drop-off. The crew customizes the route to what your group wants to do, so you're not following someone else's itinerary. Book it if you want the flexibility of a charter without arranging the boat, the guide, or the logistics yourself.

The Experience
The moment you realize the boat is yours alone — no strangers, no schedule except what you want — is when the day shifts. A private charter around Grace Bay and out to the Third Largest Reef means you set the pace, and the crew adapts. Hotel pickup happens in the morning, and then you're on the water with your group, a local guide, and an open bar that stays open the whole time. The snorkel stop lasts 45 to 60 minutes depending on what you see and how long you want to stay under, so you're not watching the clock or waiting for slower swimmers.
After the reef, the boat heads to Half Moon Bay and Iguana Island, a secluded beach where you can actually get off and walk around. The limestone cliffs are there if you want to climb them (carefully), and the rock iguanas are real — they're just hanging in the shade like they own the place, which they do. Some people grab a rum punch and float in the water. Others walk the whole stretch of beach. You're not herded back to the boat at a set time; you move when your group is ready. Lunch and snacks are included, and the crew handles the drinks, so you're not managing coolers or rationing anything.
What makes this different from the group tours is the customization. Want to add tubing? Tell them before you book. Want to skip the reef and spend more time at Half Moon Bay? That works too. The boat accommodates up to 30 passengers, so even if you bring a larger family or group of friends, it's still private — no one else's family is on it. All the gear, taxes, and fees are built in, and the guide knows the water, the wildlife, and where the light hits best in the afternoon.
What’s included

All taxes, fees, and handling charges are covered.
