About Periwinkle Reef
Periwinkle Reef is a boat-accessed reef off New Providence with an easy, shallow-profile Caribbean dive that works well for beginners and snorkelers on calm days. The reef delivers clear-water scenery, colorful coral cover, and regular sightings of sharks, rays, turtles, and reef fish, so it is best approached as a relaxed Nassau-area boat trip rather than a technical or high-current dive.
