BOHIO DIVE RESORT - GRAND TURK
(TURKS & CAICOS ISLANDS)
 
Bohio dive resort sits on the white sand of one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, idyllic Pillory beach, on the sleepy Caribbean island of Grand Turk.While most tourists gravitate to the busy resorts of Providenciales, Grand Turk retains a slower pace, despite being capital of the Turks and Caicos Islands. It attracts tourists who seek real island life and a friendly local welcome away from the tourist traps, hotel chains and bustle, as well as those seeking a Caribbean diving destination that`s as-yet unspoiled. The island has an old-fashioned colonial charm, with donkeys wandering through the streets of Cockburn Town, flamingos resting in the old salt ponds, relics of the salt-raking industry, a pink court house, and traffic jams are positively unheard of.Grand Turk is just seven miles long by a mile and a half at it`s widest point, so you can get about easily by bike or scooter. From Bohio, Cockburn town is just a short stroll along the beach, or take a kayak to a different beach for a change of scene. Take an excursion around the lighthouse, or to one of the neighboring cays, to explore the wildlife or the island life. There`s a great little museum if you are looking for cultural history, or explore the beach-side bars and local bands along Front Street for a different sort of local culture.
The resort in small in size and intimate in nature. The staff is committed to providing a friendly and personal service with everything you could need on one idyllic spot. The mix of international and local staff offers genuine hospitality and real Caribbean color.

The scuba dving from the Bohio Resort on Grand Turk departs daily from the white sand beach that lines the coast line in front of the resort. Dive sites are only a short ride from the resort and average about 10 minutes. The dive sites are so close that the boat returns to the resort between dives where you can relax in a hammock instead of bobbing up and down on the ocean. The diving in Grand Turk is mostly wall diving and the visibility can regularly reach over 100ft. The water temperatures are typical of the Caribbean randing from 75 degrees to a warm 84 degrees. The dive boats operated by the resort are not your typical "cattle boats" and accommodate up to 9 divers at time. Nitrox is also available for those wishing to dive on Nitrox.
