The Experience

Before You Go

Bring reef-safe sunscreen

Protect your skin and the coral—use reef-safe sunscreen and reapply often in tropical sun.

Pack motion-sickness remedies

Short runs can still rock you—take ginger, patches, or pills before departure if you’re susceptible.

Wear non-slip deck shoes

Grip on wet decks matters—closed-toe, non-marking shoes reduce slips and protect toes.

Label valuables and bring a dry bag

Salt spray and fish blood are inevitable—secure cameras, phones, and keys in a waterproof bag.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • La Famille Express shipwreck—easy snorkel access and a fish-attracting structure
  • Little Water Cay and surrounding cays for quiet shore visits and iguana viewing

Wildlife

  • Green sea turtles
  • Tropical reef fish (snapper, parrotfish, grunts)

Conservation Note

The area contains sensitive coral reefs and marine parks—avoid anchoring on live coral, follow local catch limits, and prefer catch-and-release for undersized fish.

Providenciales and the Caicos Banks are built on ancient limestone and coral; salt raking and small-boat fishing shaped local communities before tourism expanded in the late 20th century.
