Turks & Caicos

An undiscovered gem in the Caribbean. Discover it before everyone else does!

The islands around the Turks and Caicos are picture postcard quality and come with white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters. Island life is laid back and relaxed.

Insider’s View

Turks and Caicos are a British Territory overseas, consisting of 40 sunken coral islands situated in the Atlantic Ocean south-east of the Bahamas. These idyllical islands should be on every diver’s bucket list, seamless white sandy beaches, and warm waters rich with flora, fauna and marine life will not disappoint!

The popular gateway island known as Provo is home to sprawling Grace Bay Beach beset with luxury resorts, shops, and restaurants. The largest island Grand Turk hosts the capital Cockburn Town as well as the famous landmark Cockburn Light house, here you can find a selection of restaurants and shops though on a much smaller scale than Provo.

The pristine reefs, abundant tropical flora and fauna, fish and other marine life are some of the diving highlights in the alluring turquoise waters around the Turks and Caicos Islands. There is an exceptional thriving coral reef ecosystem, the third largest barrier reef in the world and excellent sheer walls starting in the shallows and dropping off into the deep blue giving you a real thrill.

A diving holiday to the Turks and Caicos will include encounters with an entire spectrum of reef fish including angelfish, triggerfish, wrasse, butterflyfish, jacks, filefish, trumpetfish and much more. Winter months, between January and April with some luck you will be able to spot migrating humpback whales.

Provo

Turks & Caicos

Provo is the more mainstream island and is built up with many facilities including some world class restaurants. Diving wise there are big walls and reefs to see.

  • Whale watching (seasonal)
  • Wall diving
  • Pelagic fish
  • Grace Bay beach
  • Couples/families/non-divers
  • Those seeking luxury

Grand Turk

Turks & Caicos

The best way we can explain the diving is to think of it as a mini great barrier reef just 1km from the shore. Resorts are on the beach and life here is much slower than the main island of Provo.

  • Learning to dive
  • Couples/families/non-divers
  • Coral reefs close to shore
  • Relaxed atmosphere
  • White sandy beaches
  • Away from the crowds
