Overview
ItineraryThis is a typical itinerary for this productStop At: Leeward, Leeward, Providenciales, Turks and CaicosThe tour departs from the Leeward Marine to the south side of the Island. Along the route you will see the Conch Farm. Turks and Caicos was home to the world’s first and only commercial conch farm before it was damaged during hurricane Irma.Pass By: Half Moon Bay, ProvidencialesHalf Moon Bay is a pristine three-quarter mile (1200 meter) beach that's found between the uninhabited islands of Little Water Cay and Water Cay. Essentially a sand bar that grew over time, this beach is about 400 feet (110 meters) wide, and today the central dune supports light vegetation and casuarina trees.From about 1960 into the 1990s, a channel actually existed where Half Moon Bay is now between Little Water Cay and Water Cay. Created by Hurricane Donna, this feature gradually filled in overtime and all water movement stopped by 1999. Half Moon Bay Lagoon on the south side of the beach is largely formed from what used to be the channel.Pass By: Pine Cay, Pine Cay, Turks and CaicosPine Cay is named after a small forest of endemic Caicos Pines (Pinus caribaea var. bahamensis, a subspecies of the Caribbean Pine) that surrounds the interior fresh water ponds.Situated in the string of cays between Providenciales and North Caicos, Pine Cay is privately-owned and has low density residential development. The main feature of the cay is its spectacular two-mile long north coast beach, which definitely ranks as one of the top beaches in the country. Pine Cay offers a very quiet and laid-back atmosphere.Pass By: Long Bay Beach, Long Bay Beach, Providenciales, Turks and CaicosLong Bay is an incredible three-mile-long (4.8 km) beach on the southeast side of Providenciales. The water at this popular coast is a breathtaking turquoise, with shallow depths leading off for a very great distance off the beach. Like nearly all beaches in the Turks and Caicos, the sand at Long Bay is white with perfect consistency.Stop At: La Famille Express Shipwreck, wo Miles Off Long Bay BeachAs a part of our guest experience we visit the iconic shipwreck "La Famille Express", originally a Soviet Union ship used to service oil rigs before being decommissioned in 1992.In 1999, the ship was resigned for freight in Panama, where it got its infamous name.Duration: 30 minutes

This activity says it offers pickup, but that’s not the case. After calling to confirm our pickup time and location, we found out that pickup was not available. Thankfully we had a car and were able to drive to the sight. Upon arrival, we were warned by another tour about this one, which turned out to be true. We were suppose to visit 5 sights (Long Bay beach, a conch farm, La Famille shipwreck, Pine Cay, and sand bar at Half Moon Bay) based on the information listed for this activity. However, we only saw 2 out of 5 (Pine Cay and La Famille shipwreck). We only saw the shipwreck because we asked to see it. So, we missed out on 3 of 5 sights. It was a fun experience overall, though. However, I would highly recommend searching for another more reputable tour operator so you actually get what you paid for.

Booked for 9/7. Was called 15 min before excursion for the operator to tell me a jet ski was broken and could only do 1 hour tour when I paid for 1:30 min. We rebooked for the next day. 9/8 came and was called 15 min before the excursion again to say due to “bad weather” that he would have to either cancel it or give him 30 min to a hour to see if it changes. I called him back a hour later and the same run around. I told him to issue me a refund. Bad business.. I called another tour company and booked a 2 hour excursion the same day 9/8 and there was no weather problems at all! Sunny day all day. Island hopper adventure was bull$hitting me. Would not recommend!

Amazing experience! If you want to jet ski at Turks and Caicos, I highly recommend this company. I have jet skied here before with a different company but this one beats it by far! The guides do a great job taking you to different islands including an abandoned ship, they took amazing photos and videos for us, and they are so much fun. They also took great care of my mom who was scared and couldn't quite get the hang of riding a jet ski. She said she would remember this experience forever.

Despite the miscommunication about the pick up area and being an hour and a half late starting, the experience was fantastic. I would definitely recommend booking this adventure again. Nandi was our guide and was fun and engaging.
