Are you looking at a specific island?

Not sure what you have in mind (i.e. family, non-divers, beaches, land based entertainment, etc.). For pure diving I would suggest a liveaboard. IMHO, they are some of the better diving in the Caribbean.

Yeah a livaboard on the Explorer V
entures is the ultimate way to dive Turks & Caicos. We did it was awesome.

I'm a beaches fan... but then again, I have an an 8 yr old girl so lots to keep her busy... water park, other kids, etc etc.
Diving is included in price. Been there twice and going back again in 2 weeks.
She's looking forward to doing the PADI Seal Team!
Diving is air only, but the DMs are really cool. Everything is close by, no hauling gear. Tanks are waiting on boat for you (though slightly under pressured) Almost everyone rents though I always have my own.
They have about 2-3 boats going out. One boat is usually the certified divers, the others lessons.

what type of dive profiles are typical at beaches? depth / duration? any night dives?

Beaches dive sites
most of the diving is out of grace bay to the west end of provo. But if the wind is strong out of the north, they will bus you to the boats on the south side to french cay.

Night diving is available and also free. Make sure there's a few people signed up for it though or they will bail.
