Providenciales Snorkeling Highlights

By Travel Expert: Linda Samuel
  • Read underwater signs about Smith Reef's ecosystem while parrot fish, moray eels, and turtles peer over your shoulder.
  • Off the shores of Grace Bay is a 14-mile barrier reef thriving with spectacular marine life.
  • A three-hour snorkel cruise is a great way to explore outer water reefs and costs about US$90.

Providenciales Overview

Affectionately known as Provo, Providenciales has white-sand beaches that stretch for 19km (12 miles) along the northeast coast. It also has peaceful rolling hills, flowering cactus, clear water, a natural deep harbor, and a barrier reef that attracts swimmers, divers, and boaters. The island is served by an airport (capable of handling wide-body jets), four marinas, and diving facilities.
