North and Middle Caicos Scuba Diving
All of the dive sites easily accessed from North and Middle Caicos are on the north barrier reef and consist mostly of spur and groove coral formations and wall sites. These sites are quite similar to the sites off Grace Bay, and ocean and visibility conditions are often similar.
Sea life and coral is vibrant and varied.
Shore Dive Sites
During particularly calm ocean and wind conditions, Mudjin Harbour and Conch Bar Beach offer decent shore diving. However, we don’t advise doing so as it’s rare for the site to be viable due to offshore wind and currents.
North Caicos does not have any suitable sites for diving from shore as the barrier reef is too far off the coast to swim to.
Dive Excursions from Providenciales
At this time, the best option for diving while visiting North or Middle Caicos is to either take the 30-minute ferry to Providenciales and dive from there, or arrange for a custom charter with a Providenciales dive company (that will include pickup via one of the marinas on North Caicos and likely visit nearby sites off Pine Cay).
