Cockburn Town & Pillory Beach Day Trip
Tour Details
After picking you up at your hotel in Cockburn Town or at the cruise port, we'll head out to discover the past of the capital of Grand Turk, a jewel of the Caribbean where history merges with dreamy landscapes. Let's go!
First up, we'll stop at the Grand Turk Museum. Inside, you'll travel back in time to discover what life was like for the indigenous Lucayan people, the first inhabitants of the archipelago.
For half an hour, you'll have free time in the exhibition to learn about the most important milestones of the British Overseas Territory. For example, did you know that one of the oldest European shipwrecks in the West took place here?
Afterward, we'll head to the Grand Turk Market, a corner where the Caribbean soul of the locals is manifested in every detail, where we'll spend about 20 minutes. Among stalls of handicrafts, fabrics and typical products, we'll find the perfect souvenir and learn about the work of artisans who keep alive the traditional techniques of their land.
From there, we'll depart to the north of the island, where we'll find Pillory Beach. In this enclave, we'll leave you between 3 and 4 hours of free time to enjoy this paradise surrounded by turquoise waters.
You'll have at your disposal sun loungers on the sand and a drink to relax under the sun, letting yourself be enveloped by the Caribbean sea breeze. Of course, if you wish, you can have a drink at one of the beach bars on your own—you deserve it!
Finally, after 6 hours of excursion, we'll say goodbye and drop you off at your hotel or cruise port.
