Why dive here
With 127+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, humpback whales, sea turtles, sperm whales and pufferfish - Football Field offers some of Providenciales's richest diving. Water sits around 26°C.
Football Field, off Provo, is a solid wall dive that dips down to a big sand patch. You’ll find the mooring pin around 50 feet, right at the top of the slope. Drop down to the sand at 70 feet and you’ll often spot lobsters scuttling around, or peeking out from under small coral heads. The wall itself is busy, often with schools of juvenile barracudas, jacks, and Bermuda chub, plus a few groupers hanging out. It’s a good easy dive for getting comfortable with wall diving, generally with pretty mellow conditions.
