Double D Dive Site — Turks e Caicos

Double D dive site in Turks e Caicos

About Double D

Nomeado após dois grandes pináculos que se elevam das profundezas, este local em French Cay é um rico playground para pelágicos. Fortes correntes atraem tubarões-de-recife e golfinhos, enquanto cardumes de peixes-pá e xaréus-olho-de-cavalo giram acima. Os pináculos são cobertos por corais duros e moles saudáveis, esponjas-barril e corais-cérebro. De janeiro a abril, os mergulhadores podem ouvir o canto das baleias-jubarte de grupos migratórios que passam nas proximidades. Peixes-gatilho-pretos dançam à luz do sol perto da superfície durante as paradas de segurança.
