Grand Slam Fishing Charters operates from Grace Bay in the Caicos Islands, offering private and luxury boat charters focused on sport fishing, snorkeling, and island cruises. The company runs a variety of trips ranging from half-day excursions to full-day adventures, including deep sea fishing (half-day, three-quarter-day, and full-day), bottom fishing (half-day, three-quarter-day, and full-day), snorkel and cruise options, reef eco tours, and multi-island private tours. Vessels include names such as Angler Management, Wahooters, Serendipity, and Shady Grady, and trips target big-game species like marlin, tuna, wahoo, and mahi mahi as well as reef species such as snapper and grouper.
The Pro Series Deep Sea Fishing full-day trip includes expert guidance and a catered lunch; other offerings combine fishing with snorkeling, cruising, or educational reef visits like the TCI REEF Fund trip. Family-friendly options are available and itineraries can be customized for groups, anglers of varying skill levels, and special occasions. Additional full-day cultural and historical excursions include the South Caicos Historical Excursion, which explores salt flats, local traditions, and historic sites. Shorter leisure options include sunset cruises, pirate cave discovery tours, and Robinson Crusoe Island beach hideaways. Grand Slam Fishing Charters emphasizes safety, comfort, and local knowledge by operating well-equipped vessels suited to the conditions around Grace Bay and West Caicos. Reservations and specific availability depend on seasonality and charter schedules; interested guests should confirm details directly with the operator or an authorized booking channel.
