To the left was Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville. This giant pool has a swim up bar and lots of room to swim and walk around in the water. There is a flow rider right off the pool area and was fun to watch. Just beyond the pool and flow rider is the beach. This was a nice beach and if you walk to the right, facing the ocean you will quickly come to Jack's Shack (I believe). The beach goes on for a while and many people said that there was some good snorkeling there.

We were in St. Thomas at Coki beach the day before and decided on renting a poolside cabana for the day. It cost 99.00 total. This gave us a nice area just off the pool area and Flow Rider. These come equipped with a busser and the waiter will come and take your oders when push it. The inside has a table and 4 chairs and a ceiling fan. It was great for us to eat lunch there. There were two lounge chairs on the open porch outside and we were able ot have some sun and shade. The cabana also has an open outdoor fresh water shower which was great for rinsing off.

The bathroom facilites at Margaritaville were spotless and very air conditioned. We were very happy with our day at Grand Turk.
