About this experience

What to expect

Our Turtle and Shipwreck Cruise is 1 hour and 30 minutes long. The cruise departs from Carlisle Bay. Carlisle Bay al crescent-shaped bay located on the South West Coast of the island and is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Under the surface of the sea Carlisle Bay comes alive with vibrant tropical fish in abundance, sea horses, sea turtles, octopus, rays, and much more! This unique array of marine life is due in part to the six different shipwrecks For those seeking an adventure, you will not be disappointed with the sight of these sunken treasures. Please note that the sea life seen from day to day varies. The boat cruise is 1 hour and 30 minutes, it includes snorkelling at 1 shipwreck and visiting the feeding area where swim with the turtles. There is no guarantee on the number of turtles you will see, on some days it may be 11 on some it may just be one. On very rare occasions turtles are not seen at all.
