Sahara Adventures
Providenciales
Sahara Adventures is a small and affordable charter company that provides exciting private boat excursions and a range of water sports. In addition to the quintessential visits to beautiful and secluded beaches and cays near Providenciales, there’s a range of fun activities available to complement the cruise, including wakeboarding and tubing, as well as subwinging and sea scooter snorkeling on the barrier reef.
All trips are private, and crafted to guest wishes, while maintaining a great value. Possible sights and destinations include Little Water Cay, Half Moon Bay, Water Cay, Pine Cay, Fort George Cay, Sand Dollar Cove and the sandbars, Leeward Cut Reef, La Famille Express shipwreck, and the remote West Harbour Bluff, where there’s a small cave, sea cliffs, and interesting wildlife.
Sea Scooters and Subwings
Sahara Adventures offers two unique ways to explore the incredible reefs of the Turks and Caicos.
Sea Scooters are small and easy-to-use electric underwater scooters that snorkelers can use to zip around the reef, both on the surface and while diving. These scooters allow for more underwater sights to be explored, and are also simply fun to use!
The subwing is a small towed wing that snorkelers hang on to, and is pulled behind the boat at slow speeds. The wing can be tilted and canted by the snorkeler, allowing for diving, spinning, and gliding. It takes a little bit of practice to get used to, but can be a rewarding and unforgettable way to experience the reef.
Wake Sports and Tubing
Another fun activity with Sahara Adventures is tubing and wakeboarding. Tubing is easy for all ages, and rides can be as tame or wild as desired. It’s exciting, and no skills are required!
Sunset Proposal Cruise
Sahara Adventures also offers a romantic sunset cruise where you can propose to your loved one. The cruise departing Providenciales leads to a beautiful private beach with a decorative proposal arch, romantic background music, and even a hidden camera so you can get photos and video of your engagement. The experience includes a private boat and experienced captain, canapés and white wine or champagne, and complimentary round-trip pickup from your accommodation.
The Boat and Captain
Sahara Adventures operates a comfortable Sea Ray 270 Sundancer and a nimble Godfrey Hurricane deck boat, both of which offer ample seating and shade, while being able to navigate through the shallows and reefs to some of the best spots in the Turks and Caicos.
Onboard boats are snorkel gear, safety equipment, cold drinks, rum punch, wraps, sandwiches, chips and salsa, and a sound system. The Sundancer is suitable for up to 10 guests, and the Hurricane can seat six guests.
Tours are led by Captain Hans, who has been operating boats for 18 years. He knows some great spots around the Turks and Caicos!
Complimentary beach pickup or land transportation is provided for guests.
