Turks and Caicos Dive Trip Suggestions Feb 23-March 1

[hammerdown69]

Hello, I’m looking for updated info on dive resorts and which specific island to dive from for my girlfriend and I’s trip to Turks and Caicos for the end of February. Dive Provo seems to be highly recommended but at the cost of long boat rides. Any better areas to stay to avoid the long boat rides and still see the best T&C has to offer? Would also like to swim with the whales one day since the timing lines up if anyone has any info on that.

Thanks!

The best way to avoid the long boat rides is to book on a liveaboard. You have your choice of Aggressor or Explorer Venture--they both visit pretty much the same sites.

Unfortunately neither are available the week we are going

My experience there was at the Beaches Resort. We liked the resort and the amenities. Diving is included and 2 dives in the morning or 1 in the afternoon and the rest of the day to enjoy the resort.

Grand Turk will allow you to avoid long boat rides. Humpbacks may still be there.
