You can book Turks and Caicos snorkeling tours through any number of local tour providers, and chances are good that your hotel or resort will offer its own tour options. On the organized tours, you'll often go snorkeling at more than one site, and a knowledgeable crew will be on hand to provide information on coral, fish, and more. You might even get a special fish card that can help you identify the creatures that you encounter.

In addition to the Turks and Caicos snorkeling tours, those who wish to explore the underwater realms in this tropical paradise can arrange scuba diving tours. You'll see more on a scuba diving tour, and since this is one of the best diving destinations in the world, the experience is bound to prove unforgettable.

Many of the Turks and Caicos tour companies that offer snorkeling and scuba diving tours also offer tours that can see you doing some fishing, some beach cruising, and some whale watching, among other things. Beach cruising essentially involves visiting isolated beaches that can be found on uninhabited islands and cays, and should you wish to do some whale watching, the months of December and February are the months to visit. As for the Turks and Caicos fishing tours, they can be enjoyed year round.

All of the main islands in the Turks and Caicos offer some kind of tour agency.
