The Beached Whale is owned by Margaritaville. And their conch fritters are great!

I'll have to try them on the next visit.

Thank you for posting this video!! Great information. Did they check vaccination cards upon entering Grand Turk?

[@TripswithAngie]

They did not.

[@kariviola7187]

Thank you for your prompt response you’re awesome.

[@SpaceLizard1049]

I will offer my 2 thumbs up for Jacks Shack.

[@TripswithAngie]

Thanks for introducing us to it!

[@wendykornfein3337]

Are we safe drinking the water and eating, as we are on the ship?

[@TripswithAngie]

Not sure. Where do you plan to purchase your food? Do you have a sensitive stomach? Any allergies? I'd use common sense.

[@wendykornfein3337]

@@TripswithAngie Any chosen restaurant, actually. I guess we don't have to be concerned, as we would, if traveling to Mexico, where we shouldn't drink the water.

[@shazshaz8821]

Is margaritaville free to use ? You dint have to buy a pass to use it ??

[@TripswithAngie]

The answer is in the video. :)

@@TripswithAngie I actually watched the video .. must have missed it .. but thanks for being a smart ass and great way to get more than 2 people commenting .

[@TripswithAngie]

@@shazshaz8821 Wow! Coming in a little hot on a free video? I'm surprised you watched since I mention several times that access to Margaritaville pool area is free. I even spend 2 minutes talking about why people would choose to leave the free beach area to pay for beach chairs further down the beach.
