Grand Turk Wall
21° 27.9′ N · 71° 9.4′ W · approximate
One of the great Caribbean wall dives, just off Cockburn Town's sheltered west coast: reef tops at 40–50 ft dropping into thousands of feet, with canyons, arches and sand chutes packed with fish, turtles and eagle rays.
Practical
Coordinate approximate: on the west-coast wall off Cockburn Town. More than two dozen sites lie in Columbus Landfall National Park; boat rides are short and many shops also offer shore dives. Operators on Duke Street include Blue Water Divers (+1 649 347 1400; 40+ sites incl. toward Salt Cay). National park: no fishing except in permitted zones, no take, moor or anchor only on sand.
