Magic Mushroom Dive Site — Turks & Caicos
About Magic Mushroom
Identified by a giant mushroom-shaped rock nearly visible at low tide, divers head west through coral heads to a vibrant reef at 15 metres. Sand chutes lead over the edge of a dramatic wall covered in barrel sponges, rope sponges, and soft corals. Ledges and alcoves hide handfuls of lobsters and crabs. Caribbean reef sharks are both plentiful and curious, granting many opportunities for classic close-up shark photographs.
