So well done! The presentation was first class and the people very friendly and helpful. To bad Carnival Cruise lines did not support this local undertaking and it's work!

Conch World was set up to support and preserve the conch population around Grand Turk. it is surprisingly interesting. as conch is about the only cash crop here, it is also extremely important. Well worth a couple of hours, and with great views of the eastern reefs.

If there was a tour, it was all closed off by the time we got there. We sat down at the Naked Conch as we were pretty hungry, and waited a while and then ordered. Nothing available - no fish! - except for conch fritters and salad and cheeseburgers, so we ordered those. There were maybe 10 other people there.... More

He stated that the generators were broke there and they have been closed for about 2 weeks waiting for repair... More

Conch World was one of the highlights to our trip to Grand Turk. We rented a moped just outside of the cruise center, and toured the island on our own. I had read about Conch World, but didn't want to spend the $60 for the tour offered by our cruiseline...so we found the place on our own! Turns out, it's... More
