We rented a golf cart outside the gates of the cruise terminal. Much cheaper than on the ship. The island is pretty and exploring on our own was fun. The lighthouse was smaller than I expected but it…Full review by Sherrie J

Rudest staff on the island. Charged $1 to use bathroom which had no soap or paper towels. Will never go back. Waste of time driving out there. Views are good as you can see from anyone’s posted photo…Full review by BeASmartCookie

The very north point of Grand Turk, the old lighthouse sits on a prominent hill with great views over the ocean and reef below.Full review by Anthony S
Hi- About renting golf carts in Grand Turk. We are heading there in February and wanted to ask you how to get a hold of Omar from grand Turk adventures. Also- how was it getting around with a golf cart? I was thinking of stopping at Governour Beach and Pillory Beach and Lighthouse. We are in port from 12-6 Thank you in advance! I do appreciate it!

Hi! We were there in October. Our friends rented a golf cart and we rented a jeep. They regretted not getting the jeep too We only spent $10 more than they did and enjoyed it much more. The golf carts are not well maintained and are very, very slow. We passed several people in golf carts that were broken down. The jeep was a newer model. Something you may want to consider is that with the jeep you can lock up your personal belongings when you stop at the beaches or other destinations. We were concerned about the traffic and driving on the opposite side of the road but unlike other carribean islands, there is very little traffic and there is no way to get lost. We were also able to visit places that are accessible only by 4wd. There is not much to do in Grand Turk. We tried snorkeling from shore near the Bohio Resort at Pillory Beach but the visibility that day was only about 2ft. If we ever go back we will definitely book a snorkeling excursion instead so we really appreciate the beautiful water! Good luck!
We are planning on renting a scooter or golf cart and tour the island and visit the lighthouse. Do you know how much the zipline is, if you don't book through a cruise ship?

The island is really easy and fun to tour by ATV, scooter, etc. Just remember to drive on the left side of the street. Unfortunately, when we were there, you can ONLY have the ropes coarse excursion through the ship. We tried a few times to do it privately and they would not let us. The up side to book it through the ship is that the ship knows you are there and they will do everything they can to get you back on the ship before they depart.
