I am on the Crown and I thought I would let others know when we went to Grand Turk this week around the Margaritaville area and beach everything was fine, most excursions had been cancelled, the scuba and snorkeling were still on. The Princess Patters did say to take cash because the credit card machines on the island were not functioning yet due to the hurricane. I do believe some stores were still functional, but not all. I just wanted to let others know because we did not know what to expect and it had my curiosity up before our trip.

We were there in May and thoroughly enjoyed renting one of the cabanas by the pool.

We were also on the Crown Princess sailing on October 19th and were quite pleased to be able to get to Grand Turk. There definitely is a lot of damage there and there isn't a roof there without a blue tarpaulin. The beach was great and the snorkeling was great. Lots of new species in the water..... roof shingles.
Only disappointment was Margaritaville where the drinks were a small fortune. Quite a shock after the cheap prices in St Maarten.

Thanks for the update. We're booked to sail on the Crown this coming Sunday, and noticed our shore excursion was cancelled....made me wonder if the cruise port was even open! Did you hear if anyone went to Governor's Beach?
