Molasses Reef Dive Site — Turks & Caicos
About Molasses Reef
Named for the golden-brown corals that break the surface, this French Cay wall starts at 16 metres and descends into one of the most fantasy-like underwater landscapes in Turks and Caicos. The wall top hosts trumpetfish, parrotfish, and damselfish of every colour. Nassau and goliath groupers regularly patrol these reefs. Famous for an abundance of nurse and reef sharks, with occasional visiting hammerhead, tiger, or bull shark sightings making this an advanced-level adrenaline dive.
