Wall Street
Turks and Caicos Islands · Turks and Caicos Islands
Wall Street is the signature reef wall dive on Providenciales, dropping vertically from 15 metres to beyond recreational limits along the edge of the Caicos Bank. Spur and groove formations at the top transition abruptly into a sheer coral face draped with sea fans and black coral at depth. Caribbean reef sharks patrol the wall edge consistently, and the occasional passing hawksbill turtle is common. Current can accelerate along the wall during tidal exchanges, creating ideal conditions for drift diving and pelagic encounters.
