Access

Tough to get to. Pine Cay is a private island so you will need to take a boat from Provodenciales. There are two breaks. One break is off the barrier reef and the other is a beach break between Water Cay and Pine Cay

Additional Information

One break is off the barrier reef aprox 1/4 mile off shore Along the reef there are two "cuts" Fort George Cut is off Pine Cay and Leeward Cut is closer to Water Cay. Both Cuts break when the wind is coming from the east and waves are 3-5 ft.

The second break is a shore break between Pine Cay and Water Cay. It rarely breaks and waves are small even then. Wind needs to be from the East and waves off shore need to be 5+ feet.
