Creator's Key Takeaways

This is day three of our journey aboard the Carnival Martyra.

I wanted an excursion that would show us a little bit of the island cuz I've never been to Grand T.

Look at this absolutely gorgeous water. There is no way that this camera is able to accurately portray what I'm seeing right now.

I love this island. It's fantastic. I mean, beautiful, beautiful water. Really friendly people. I would love to come back here.
