Grand Turk Wall

Turks and Caicos Islands

The Grand Turk Wall is a renowned drop-off along the sheltered west coast of Grand Turk, where the reef plunges from shallow water to depths of thousands of feet just offshore.

The Grand Turk Wall runs along the leeward, western side of Grand Turk island, within the Columbus Landfall National Park. Dive sites here are unusually close to shore, keeping boat rides to around 10-15 minutes. The wall begins in shallow water before dropping abruptly, with a signature site known as the Amphitheater, known for strong visibility and encounters with eagle rays, Caribbean reef sharks, and tarpon. No verifiable centre coordinate for the wall itself was found, only the island's general location, so none is set here.
