Turks and Caicos delivers stunning wall diving along the Columbus Passage, where the continental shelf drops thousands of feet into the deep Atlantic. During winter months, humpback whales migrate through these waters, creating magical encounters for lucky divers and snorkelers. The topside luxury is among the Caribbean's finest, with Grace Bay consistently ranked as one of the world's best beaches.
