Don’t pay for chairs with locals. As soon as you get off the ship take a left instead of walking through Margaritasville . All the blue chairs right in front of the ship are free. There with be locals trying to get you to pay for other chairs . Especially the farther you go down the beach . I’ve been twice this year. If you go to the right of the ship all those chairs are free as well. I love Grand Turk.
That’s great feedback! And YES Grand Turk Is amazing!! If we feel we are going to be at the beach all day (which we usually do) and in the water we will go past the ship, margaritaville and locals and go to Jack’s Shack. There are little to no rocks in the water. It’s roughly a 5-10 minute walk from the pier. It is a very enjoyable beach experience. All the beaches/water near the ship are a little too rocky for us and can be a PITA. If we were only going to be off the ship for a short period we would take your recommendation and stay near the ship. Thank you again for the comment and coming along on our journey. Happy Cruising.
You have to wait in line to get a drink. Then you have to wait in line to order food. Then we had to wait in a very long line to get the food. By then we got our food it was we needed to get in line for another drink. I can't recommend this place honestly except to say the beaches are better than by the ship. It's a local joint that's over-crowded, loud, long lines and sticky tables but if that your jam you'll love it.
I have to agree with you. However, as we mentioned in the video we go there for the beach. They offer food and drinks but the beach experience is where it’s at. We may buy a beer or two but that's it. We save our appetite for the ship. Thank you for your comments and sharing your experience at Jacks Shack. Also thank you for coming along on our journey around the world.
That’s awesome! We love Grand Turk as well. The beaches, the people and the water are amazing. Thank you for the comment and coming along on our journey.
Hi Penny, Is that what they charged you? That is ridiculous! Thank you for commenting. We will be sailing the next 2 months to our last continent Antarctica. Please consider hitting the subscribe button and coming along on our journey around the world.
I can't remember how we paid for the chairs. I'm thinking we paid cash for the chairs. Drinks & food you can use credit card or cash. Thank you for your questions, comments and coming along on our journey around the world.
