Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE REEFS

Extended Snorkeling on Leeward Reef and Pine Cay

The itinerary pairs morning snorkeling at Leeward Reef with a second, 50–60 minute snorkeling session after lunch at Pine Cay reef — two opportunities to explore the Caicos Bank’s nearshore coral and marine life.

THE MEAL

Island‑Style Beach BBQ on Fort George Cay

Instead of returning directly to Provo, the full‑day tour lands on Fort George Cay for a plated beach BBQ featuring seafood (lobster when in season), BBQ chicken, peas and rice, corn on the cob, garlic bread and fresh fruit.

THE FINISH

Shelling for Sand Dollars on the Way Home

After the final snorkel at Pine Cay reef, the trip includes a light shelling stop to search for sand dollars — a signature, leisurely end to the day.
