Why dive here
With 127+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, humpback whales, sea turtles, sperm whales and pufferfish - West Caicos offers some of Providenciales's richest diving. Water ranges 26-30°C, warmest August, September, October.
West Caicos delivers on the classic Provo wall dive, just with more space to spread out. We’re talking a two-mile stretch of vertical reef here, so your dive operator has plenty of options to pick a quiet spot. Drop in, and you’ll find the wall draped in some seriously impressive sponges – think huge purple tubes, long ropes, and big antler sponges. Keep an eye out into the blue for bigger pelagic stuff cruising past. It’s a great pick if you like that feeling of a sheer drop-off, with plenty of places for macro critters to hide in the cracks.
