DEEP SEA FISHING
Deep sea fishing is very
popular in these islands with many tournaments
such as the annual
Caicos Classic Release Tournament in Providenciales and the
Heineken Game Fishing
Tournament in Grand Turk. The top prize all year
round is the blue marlin, in these waters, while
the sailfish and white marlin only arrive
between November and April. All the year you can
catch barracuda and sharks, only during summer
yellow fish and wahoo.
DIVING
A impressive reef 320 km
long and 100 km wide, pierced by caves and
caverns, with a multitude of wrecks of every age,
faces north island and offers spectacular diving.
It is mostly a national park.
The Columbus
Passage between the two islands is the gate that
allows the passage of whales
during the winter, and of the turtles and races
all the year round. In Providenciales there is
one of the most challenging dives along
Northwest Point Marine Park Wall, a vertical
wall covered with colorful sponges and populated
by fish, turtles and rays. Nice also diving in
North Caicos, South Caicos, West Caicos and
around Grand Turk (Grand Turk Wall spectacular)
and Salt Cay.
GOLF
In Providenciales
there is one of the most famous courses in the
Caribbean, the
Provo Golf Club, an
18-hole course opened in 1922 and signed by Karl
Litten. On Grand Turk you will find the
historic route of the
Waterloo 9 holes,
next to the Governor's House and to the
Governors Beach.
