Salt Cay

Diving & Snorkeling

Crystal Seas Adventures. Proprietor Tim Dunn, whose family descends from the original owners of Salt Cay's historic White House, knows these waters as well as anybody. His company offers a variety of excursions: diving with stingrays at Gibbs Cay, and trips to Grand Turk and secluded beaches, such as Great Sand Cay. Whale-watching is also very popular, and Dunn is the only outfitter with diving trips to South Caicos, reputed to be one of the best places in the world for this.

Scuba divers can explore the wreck of the Endymion, a 140-foot wooden-hull British warship that sank in 1790; you can swim through the hull and spot cannons and anchors. It's off the southern point of Salt Cay.

Salt Cay Divers. Salt Cay Divers conducts daily dive trips and rents all the necessary equipment. In season, they run whale-watching trips. They can also help get you to Salt Cay from Provo or Grand Turk, and stock your villa with groceries. Balfour Town, Salt Cay. 649/946-6906. www.saltcaydivers.tc.
