What To Expect

Begin your private boat charter with pickup at your local hotel in Providenciales. Transfer to the marina to meet your own personal boat for the day. Your private tour is completely flexible and able to be customized; let your captain know if your group has any particular interests or places you want to see. The itineraries below can be used to build your perfect day.

Full-Day Cruise

Start with a leisurely cruise along Grace Bay beach toward the first snorkeling stop. Slip on the provided snorkeling gear and dive in to experience one of the Caribbean's last well-preserved reefs. For 45 minutes, view a plethora of fish, vibrant coral structures and marine mammals. If you're not interested in snorkeling, the boats are equipped with diving boards and slides for swimming and playing.

Before heading to the Caicos banks for some conch hunting, the captain will detour to Iguana Island where guests have the chance to meet our local friends, the Rock Iguana. On the Caicos Banks, the crew will hunt wild conch for lunch and teach you a little bit about the anatomy, history and significance of conch in TCI.

Stop at Ft George, a cay just off the coast of North Caicos, to explore while the crew prepare a full island-style lunch, which includes: BBQ Chicken, Lobster (seasonal), Grilled Fish, Conch Salad, local peas n' rice, buttery corn and garlic bread.

After lunch, your tour group will cruise over to Shell Island where you will have the chance to find beautiful shells on the white sands or snorkel the shore for sand dollars.

Before heading home, the captain will detour to Pine Cay reef where you will snorkel some of the world's most majestic coral reefs.

Back in Providenciales, get dropped off on the beach in front of your hotel.

Half-Day Cruise

Begin your half-day by cruising along the white-sand Grace Bay beach on the north shore of Providenciales. The first stop will be the TCI barrier reef, the third largest reef system in the world. Gear up and snorkel one of the most pristine and untouched underwater worlds in the world.

After snorkeling, your captain will cruise to the south side of the islands where the first mate will hunt for wild conch.Then, cruise to one of the uninhabited cays where guests will to eat a barbecue lunch lunch and will have the opportunity to explore the island's deserted shores.

This was by far the best part of our trip to TCI! JJ and Carmine were attentive and ensured we enjoyed our time on the water.

Philip_P, May 2024

The crew was great. They added local expertise on the islands, great snorkeling choices, private beach and iguana stop, as well as turtle, dolphin and shark spotting. The fresh fish fry was a pleasant surprise. Most important the crew made sure every swimmer felt safe in and out of the water.

Amazing day on the water with Caicos Dream Tours

Susan_M, Mar 2024

Absolutely perfect afternoon on Caicos Dream Tours with Captain Licky and Wilson! We are a family of six with preteens and teens, and we chose the private half day tour from Grace Bay. The crew let us define the afternoon and we went all around the island; snorkeling at the reef, saw the shipwreck, went through the mangroves, went to an amazingly beautiful sandbar, Iguana island, Noah’s Ark, and the crew even went diving for conch so our kids could take a picture! Captain Licky and Wilson were super friendly, the activities were fun, and most importantly the trip felt very comfortable and safe. We had a great day and I would 100% recommend this company. We will be back.

Half day private tour

Kimberly_L, Apr 2021

Our private tour was customized and executed in the most amazing way. From extended snorkeling time to a fresh caught lunch, and bonus beach stops, our afternoon was top-notch. Our captain and 1st mate provided 4 hours of island bliss.

Sun, Sand, Snorkeling, Shellfish - SSSSuch a great experience!

Ajoy_M, Jan 2021

From the pickup at the beach right in front of our room to the excellent attention and service throughout the morning, could not have been happier with this choice. Captain Bob and First Mate Larry were exceptional hosts - we watched them dive and catch lobster and conch that they then cooked for lunch. The unlimited rum punch was delicious along with soft drinks/water if preferred. Trip goes where you want (or just leave yourself in their hands). Snorkeling was phenomenal - surrounded by fish, sting rays and sea turtles along a brilliant coral reef. Then time spent on an island with wildlife (iguanas!) and beach along the Atlantic as well as the Caribbean. Highly recommended.

Response from Host, Jan 2021

Thank you for the amazing review! Hopefully it's a memory that will last a lifetime :-) Sounds like you had a truly customized experience and we look forward to providing you with many more in the future!

Rosemary D, Mar 2016

This private boat charter was wonderful. Snorkeling was great: lots of fish and 12 sand dollars. Plenty of things to do: tubing, sliding down the slide, cruising around and a delicious lunch. Would do this again. Jay and Emmanuel were great. Courteous, very informative and so much fun.
