Completely Worth It!

Absolutely worth every penny!!! Our guide, Ted, was so knowledgeable. We learned so much on this adventure. We did the 3 hour tour and the advantage to this is a smaller group. It was us and one other couple. It was the most wonderful experience and we got to see so much wildlife! I love sea turtles and we saw at least 20!

Operator response

Mangrove Cay and “small” Iguana Island - Late start

It was a rough start. The 11am booking did not depart until 12:30pm. I think it was because there were not enough kayaks for the number of booked guests. Sam was great as a guide. 5 stars if we did not burn 1.5 hours of dead time.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback—we truly appreciate you sharing your experience. We sincerely apologize for the delayed departure. That’s not the standard we aim for, and we understand how valuable your time is while visiting Turks and Caicos. Occasionally, factors like last-minute adjustments or conditions can affect timing, but we’re actively improving our scheduling and equipment coordination to avoid situations like this going forward. We’re glad to hear Sam took great care of you once the tour got going and that you enjoyed the experience on the water. Your feedback helps us improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with the full 5-star clear kayak experience at Mangrove Cay next time.

Enjoyed the mangrove tour with Clear Wave Tours

Had a lovely tour with Sam in the mangroves. There were only 3 people in the group so we were able to navigate the mangroves easily and we saw lots of turtles. Clear Wave Tours usually takes a maximum of 10 people, which is much smaller than other tours we saw (they had a lot of congestion as they tried to follow their group). As you exit the mangroves and kayak a little farther to a small beach where there are iguanas (not the 'official' iguana island that is located further across the bay), there were so many sea turtles! Really enjoyed this relaxing morning.

Operator response

Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re glad you enjoyed the clear kayak tour through the mangroves with Sam and got to see so many turtles—that’s always a highlight at Mangrove Cay. Keeping our groups smaller is something we focus on so guests can move easily and enjoy a more relaxed experience compared to larger, congested tours. That area near the beach is definitely a special spot for wildlife, and we’re happy you got to experience it. Thanks again for choosing Clear Wave Tours in Turks and Caicos—we hope to have you back on the water again soon!

Romeo was a great tour...

Romeo was a great tour guide. I was a little concerned about the paddle across the channel with the high winds today but it turned out to be fine. Romeo took good care of us and explained things clearly. Saw some turtles and a lemon shark. It was a good time. Would recommend and do again on our next trip.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re glad to hear that, despite the windy conditions, you felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the tour. Romeo will be thrilled to know his guidance and clear instructions made a difference in your experience. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to have you join us again on your next trip!
