Grand Turk Kayaking
The wetlands of Grand Turk unfortunately don’t compare to those that can be found in the Caicos Islands. Kayak tours typically take place in the interior and sheltered South Creek, which really doesn’t have large amounts of wildlife..
Facilities
Luxurious Spa Retreat
Modern Fitness Center
Heated Outdoor Pool
Of the main islands in the Turks and Caicos, Grand Turk, due to its limited wetlands, doesn’t offer exceptional kayaking. Only two general areas are feasible: off the west coast beaches, and the sheltered North Creek. For visitors to Grand Turk, kayaking can be done as a guided cruise ship excursion tour, or as a simple rental.
Cruise Ship Shore Excursions
A two or three-hour kayaking tour is offered as a shore excursion to cruise ship guests through the cruise lines. This package leaves from the Grand Turk Cruise Center, with transfer by small shuttle bus to North Creek, where there’s a short walk on a wetlands trail and the kayak launch area.
As part of a guided eco-tour, there’s very little for you to worry about. Transport, equipment fitting, and basic instruction is included, so simply enjoy the experience. Guides are also able to help identify wildlife.
Kayaking off Cockburn Town
For guests staying overnight on Grand Turk, complimentary kayak use from your accommodation or rental from one of the Cockburn Town dive shops is another option. When there’s no ocean swell, kayaking off Cockburn Town Beach, Governor’s Beach and Pillory Beach is an excellent way to see the town from the water.
