We've done some diving off West Caicos, but not French Cay. Was wondering how the diving compares, and in particular how deep is the top of the wall or the shallows on dives around French Cay.

I'm actually not sure it would. There's little to no shore diving off Provo and it tends to be larger resorts and condos on Grace Bay Beach for the most part. It's the most inhabited island so there's some good food. Boat dives to NW Point are short rides but as described, the other sites are farther. I'm not sure there is a dive resort on Provo, we looked into it b4 doing the liveaboard but didn't find one. Quite a few of the hotels do packages with dive operators and there's also 2 AI's. Beaches is kid-oriented and the Club Med is adults only. All are listed here: http://www.turksandcaicostourism.com/accomodations-overview.htmlThinking about T&C for summer 2014. My daughter and I are experienced divers who love to be around other divers, and don't need night life or excitement but do want to eat good food and dive our brains out.
Live aboard is a no go as my dive buddy daughter gets sick so that also means boat rides to dive sites should be as short as possible.
We like walls, swim throughs, larger creatures, and variety. Availability of shore diving would be a plus. We like a small dive centirc hotel where we will make friends and dive buddies during our stay.
What would be your advice for T&C and do you think it would be a good fit?
Grand turk sounds like it will be better for you the diving is very different than provo and runs to the dive sites are 10 mins if that , the way of life on the island is much slower!! UNTIL the cruise liners come in and quadrupal the population and crucifie the dive sites so be warned it goes mad!!!!!!!!thats 2-3 times a week
hope you have fun !!!
