The Turks and Caicos Explorer II's regular itinerary departs Providenciales each Saturday. Carrying 20 passengers, the luxurious 124-foot Turks & Caicos Explorer II features large and well-appointed common areas, and individually-controlled air conditioning in each stateroom. The two spacious VIP staterooms each feature a queen bed, large windows, private bathroom and shower. The main deck features spacious staterooms forward, each with queen or twin beds and private bathroom. The lower staterooms each feature portholes, twin beds, large wardrobe, and private bathroom and shower. The expansive flybridge offers a comfortable, shaded seating area, as well as built-in barbecue and wet bar; the sundeck, one level below, offers lounge chairs and seating, as does, the well-appointed full-width main salon which is located aft of the staterooms. The dive deck provides individual gear lockers, air and nitrox filling station, large camera table, charging station and ample storage and room for gearing up. Large staircases lead down to the dive platform, for easy access to the ocean.
