Our Reef
An underwater wonderland is just steps away. We are uniquely positioned on one of the world's most celebrated beaches, with the rare privilege of having a vibrant snorkeling reef just a few feet from shore. There's no need for a boat ride or a journey to a remote location.
Get Up Close With Our Underwater Neighbors
Our beach borders the protected waters of the Princess Alexandra Marine Park, home to “Jojo,” the island’s beloved and famously friendly bottlenose dolphin. Turks and Caicos boasts the third-largest coral reef system on the planet, renowned for its clarity and vibrant marine life.
Healthy reefs mean an abundance of colorful fish, and the crystal-clear water makes spotting them effortless—an irresistible combination for snorkelers and divers alike. These natural reefs also help maintain Grace Bay’s famously warm, calm waters by keeping cooler ocean currents at bay. With so much natural beauty right offshore, it’s no surprise guests return to Windsong year after year to rediscover the joy of reefside snorkeling and create unforgettable Caribbean memories.
The third-largest coral reef system in the world
While destinations like the Maldives and Australia’s Great Barrier Reef often steal the spotlight, Turks & Caicos quietly boasts the world’s third-largest barrier reef. Spanning more than 230 miles, this underwater sanctuary is rich with marine life and offers incredible opportunities for both snorkelers and divers. The surrounding waters are alive with colorful coral, tropical fish, graceful rays, and even endangered sea turtles. With much of the reef located within protected national parks and marine reserves, it’s one of the Caribbean’s top spots for safe, unforgettable underwater adventures.
Exploring the Reef
From the moment you step into the sea, you'll find yourself immersed in a thriving marine world, spot sea turtles gliding effortlessly, watch stingrays sweep across the sandy floor, and marvel as colorful fish weave through coral formations. It's an unforgettable experience you can enjoy anytime, as often as you like, throughout your stay.
