We much prefer Smith's reef over Bight reef. This reef is much larger, not roped off, and way quieter. As many posters have mentioned, we found the best access is the path to the right of 68 Coconut Road. There is a small sandy section that provides easy access into the water. There are reefs to the left and right... More

We snorkelled Smith's Reef twice and will likely go back before we leave. It is easy to find; take bridge road (Green Bean Cafe), Bridge comes to a 'T' - you can go right or left. We did both and preferred going left. Take it right down to the end, into what looks like someone's driveway, it opens up into... More

On third visit to T&C, I was looking for a new "off the beach" snorkel experience. I had had great success at Coral Gardens (great because it has a flotation rope around the reef so a guy with a leaky mask can fix the problem easily). Smith Reef had the following major disadvantages: 1) hard to find access (you either... More

Been to Provo twice now. Each time we made trips to Smith's reef part of Princess Alexandra Land and Sea National Park. It's protected and needds to be. We got there by rental car making a right from traveling west onto Bridger St. We took that north and then followed it west to the end. Theres an area to park... More

After snorkeling at Bight Reef, we decided to try Smith's Reef and weren't disappointed. There are many reefs that you have to swim to, and it's great when you swim for a few dozen of meters (yards) and you just find another reef! Other wildlife! It's like discovering new areas. There are a few things to know before you go... More

Stayed at The Sands of Grace Bay resort on Grace Bay Beach during the week of December 15, 2012. The air temperature was in the low 80's each day with no humidity and the water temperature was 80 degrees. Snorkeling is best during the Summer and early Fall months when the sun is much higher in the sky, allowing for... More

We stayed in a villa right on the reef so went out snorkeling several days. Unfortunately the remnants of a hurricane were there the entire week and the sand was a bit churned up and the water choppy. We were still able to see plenty though. You swim from reef to reef and see plenty of fish. It's a little... More

My husband and I saw some really cool coral formations and fish. We rode our rented bikes the four or so from Grace Bay and had no trouble finding the correct beach (found the white Smith's Reef sign at the "Central" beach access near the Green Bean Cafe easily.) Finding the reef in the water was a little tricky. Initially,... More

We followed reviews here. Went to the jungle path that was right before house #68. Walked down right to the beach. I just wanted to share that we saw a shark. I was hoping to see turtles & rays but never did but other people did. Just take your time snorkeling so you can see it all. I go too... More
