Jean Cruises into Grand Turk for Doris Visits, where they have great beaches just a walk from the ship Grand Turk Island is the capital island of the Turks and Caicos archipelago, which lies between the Bahamas and the Dominican Republic. Tainos are believed to be the island’s first inhabitants. These peoples are thought to have migrated north up through the Caribbean sometime around the year 700 AD.

Here, where the ship stops, is a Flowrider, a flow of margarita at Margaritaville, pools, a flow of great ice cream and much more. Jean will show you the carts and car you can hire to visit the remains of salt ponds and windmills from the island’s sea salt industry period or the 19th-century lighthouse in the north. But, it is more likely that you will not get drawn away from the clear waters, the shops and the restaurants… oh, and the space centre to boast of the first dry land American astronaut John Glenn stepped foot on after orbiting Earth in 1962.

The options here are the resort, the beach, or the golf carts and fun cars to tour the island.
