Creator's Key Takeaways

this is from our summer 2024 Cruise aboard the carnival venena

the beach itself was really nice on the right side of the pier when facing the cruise ship

we really enjoyed it as the beach was so close to the ship and the waters and sand were some of the best we've seen

no need to take an Excursion At All

Creator's Tips & Advice

Walk from the pier to the Grand Turk Cruise Center in about 5 minutes
Check out the beach areas first before booking island exploration tours
Rent umbrellas for around $30 or use free lounge chairs without umbrellas
Bring your own float to save money on rentals
