The South Side Marina is a popular destination for cruisers.

South Side Marina is a small harbor located on the central south coast of Providenciales in the Turtle Tail area. This complex is found inland a short distance, with connection to the Caicos Banks by a dredged channel. The network of canals in the Cooper Jack Bay and Discovery Bay areas begins here as well.

This quiet marina is a favorite with cruisers, as slip and service rates tend to be a little better than what’s typical at the larger Providenciales marinas.

Also on site is Bob’s Bar, a small pub that offers an old-time Providenciales atmosphere, and is likewise a perfect place to grab a refreshment and watch the sunset. Potluck events and BBQs are also hosted weekly.

Marina Entry and Navigation

As is the case with many of the marinas and cuts surrounding the Turks and Caicos, care should be taken with navigation into South Side Marina. At lower tides, the banks surrounding the inlet into South Side Marina can be quite shallow, and vessels may become grounded if they stray off course.

We advise contacting the marina prior to entry on VHF channel 16.

Please be advised that information about these locations is provided for educational use only, and you should consult appropriate charts and other information before making a decision on where to moor.

A popular spot is at Sapodilla Bay, found a 5-mile (8 km) sail to the west. This cove offers a great and tranquil beach.

Another option is to anchor in the lee of the cays off South Dock and Five Cays. These small islands include Bay Cay, William Dean Cay, and Pusey Cay.
