Snorkeling & Diving

The Turks and Caicos Islands are home to one of the longest barrier reefs in the world it’s over 125 miles long and protects the north shore of the island of Providenciales. The barrier reef is an ideal spot to observe humpback whales, and with underwater visibility exceeding 100 feet in most locations, the coral reefs, seamounts, and sea walls that surround the islands are perfect for encountering schools of tropical fish, sea turtles, eagle rays, and even sharks.

Many locations in the Turks and Caicos, such as Grace Bay, feature shallow and tranquil waters and are great for beginning divers. The activities desk at The Sands at Grace Bay can help you plan your diving adventure. Read more about snorkeling and diving.

Golf

For some, golf is a way of life. There’s no need to leave the links behind when you travel to the Turks and Caicos. Instead, you can look forward to playing on one of the top ten 18-hole golf courses in the Caribbean. The natural limestone outcroppings, carpeted in unique prickly pear cactus and scrub foliage, make for a memorable experience. Try some golf-oriented shopping therapy at the clubhouse,

and finish up your day with a drink followed by dinner on a terrace overlooking the golf course and the setting Caribbean sun.
