Snorkeling The Grand Turk Wall

Our final excursion was today. We ventured not too far from the cruise ship off the coast of Grand Turk to the Grand Turk Wall. The water was in amazingly clear. So clear you could easily see to the bottom which was about 30 feet. Well, 30 feet before the wall which is a 7,000 foot drop. That’s right over a 1 mile straight down. The dark area you see in the video, is that drop! I would return to snorkel here in a heart beat!! I had so much fun. Too many people snorkeling in the exact same spot, but the views were breathtaking.

San Juan: Historic Fort Tour 2

After visiting Castillo San Cristóbal we got back on the tour bus and headed to our second and last historic fort, Castillo San Felipe Del Morro. The first fort was pretty amazing and gave an amazing view into the lives of the soldiers that would have been stationed there so many years ago. That fort has some pretty amazing views; but nothing compared to the grandeur of this fort. The size of the fort and the views from all over the fort of the coast and ocean were incredible. There was also an old cemetery on the grounds just outside the gates of the fort.

There was a great deal of walking today!! I wish I had more time to take photos and videos of both ports, but we are on our way to our next port of call, Amber Cove in the Dominican Republic.
