My last 3 days on the Caicos platform were specifically for SCUBA diving! Turks and Caicos has a beautiful wall to dive off of and I got to dive off the West point of Provo as well as the wall on West Caicos! Both spots were amazing with lots of sharks, corals, sponges, and fish. If you ever get the change to dive a wall like this, take it! It is absolutely fabulous, on the one side is a gorgeous reef, and on the other, deep blue water, kilometers deep!

There were loads of sharks!
And some really cool fish (a flying Gurnard) |
Down through a sediment bypass channel!
And a little ledge choc-a-bloc with amazing platy corals!
I got a little excited about taking photos of the platy corals!
Evil Lionfish....
After the dives I had the afternoons to myself, what better way to relax than to find myself an ooid beach!
