Hi Christopher, there doesn’t look to be any recent comments posted by cruisers visiting T&C, but our formalities info. was updated this time last year. I have just got in touch with the authorities there to check for any changes in procedures and fees and will advise when I get a reply. I’ve not heard of anything in the last 12 months, so it’s likely all is still the same – see https://www.noonsite.com/place/turks-caicos/view/clearance/.
Just a quick update on clearing in at Sapodilla Bay. The customs office at the South Dock is not accessible by boat or dinghy as it is located in a working dockyard. You can however beach your dinghy at the access path between resort properties and walk to the main road and take a right and a right again to get to the yard. You will be given hardhat and vest and directed to office. Clearance was very easy otherwise. Note that the office does not have any idea what Sailclear is at this point, nor do they take credit cards. Optionally, they suggested that it may be easier for cruisers to head to South Side Marina to check in and then find anchorage once cleared. Sapodilla Bay is not within walking distance to any amenities or services but the holding was good in 10 feet of water with protection from North and East.
