- Turks and Caicos Dive Sites Visited: Two-tank boat dives visit all the dive areas around Provo, including Grace Bay, Northwest Point, West Caicos, French Cay, Pine Cay, and Sandbore Channel. For divers taking advantage of a multi-day dive package, we try to rotate dives around all the dive site areas so you get a taste of the variety Turks and Caicos scuba diving offers.

These boat dive packages are for Certified Open Water divers or above, who have dived within the last year or participated in a refresher course and are comfortable in the water. We offer a Basic Refresher for a couple of hours each afternoon packaged with a 2-tank dive the following day.

Spur and groove coral formations offer interesting topography with many nooks and crannies for underwater creatures to hide in and for inquisitive divers to explore.
