Luxury Turks and Caicos Resort now offering shipwrecks

Aug. 27, 2010 - PRLog -- Providenciales, TURKS AND CAICOS – August 20, 2010 – Every year, thousands of vacationers travel to the Turks and Caicos to enjoy the sun, sand, and surf, yet many never explore one the islands’ main attractions: the world’s third largest barrier reef. Only those located near Australia and Belize boast more square mileage. Marine flora and fauna are only the beginning of what guests at the Tuscany on Grace Bay will experience, thanks to this luxury boutique resort’s free diving and snorkeling promotion.

As the summer of 2010 winds down, the Tuscany is kicking off its exciting new special. When guests book a three-bedroom suite for at least 5 nights from September 1 through November 15, they receive two extra nights and the diving adventure of a lifetime, worth up to $700 – all for free.  

Beginners and veterans will marvel at an underwater landscape like no other in the world. Crystal-clear Caribbean waters provide phenomenal visibility up to 200 feet. 8000-feet deep, Columbus Passage spans 22 miles and divides the Turks from the Caicos. A diversity of aquatic species, including manta rays, spotted eagle rays, sea turtles, dolphins, and even migrating humpback whales, make their home there. Some excursions even include wall diving along sea cliffs that surround the island.

The Blue Hills on Providenciales has a rich history of pirates and a treacherous northwest reef. Shipwrecks in the area include the famous steamship Saxon from Liverpool, England, which sank in the late 19th century and, according to legend, left behind 4,000 silver coins.
The Tuscany welcomes all who want to adventure and explore this richness of the sparkling, turquoise waters of the Caribbean, and those snorkelers and divers fortunate enough to book a stay at the resort will appreciate having a luxurious base camp.
