Sail on a private party catamaran

The dreamy turquoise water in Turks & Caicos is a sight to behold. It’s hard to refuse a thrilling experience on a private boat set on the ocean. That’s why several BFFs were all aboard the catamaran cruise thanks to our partners at Island Routes Caribbean Adventures. The ladies got down to their favorite tunes in the gleaming sun and sipped on cocktails while taking in the panoramic views – if this sounds like paradise it’s because it was. During the trip, passengers got to set foot on an offshore island, where they basked in the sun on the secluded beach and snapped selfies with the ocean as their backdrop.

On the way back to the resort, there was no choice but to indulge in delectable appetizers and party until they couldn’t anymore.


Treat yourself like it’s a spa day

What’s a girls’ trip without a little pampering? Presented by Sanitas and Farmhouse Fresh, the girls took part in skincare workshops taught by the experts.
