Salt Cay

Deane's Dock

Step into history at Deane’s Dock, the primary port of entry and heartbeat of quiet Salt Cay. Located in historic Balfour Town, this charming 19th-century harbor serves as the main arrival point for inter-island passenger ferries from Grand Turk, local dive boats, and fishing vessels.

Framed by a historic concrete breakwater constructed in 1896, Deane’s Dock offers a sheltered landing along the island’s leeward coast. The dock area serves as the launch pad for world-class humpback whale watching and scuba diving excursions, housing local operators and a beachfront grill just steps from the water. Explore nearby remnants of the island’s 1800s salt-producing past, watch free-roaming donkeys pass by, or enjoy a tranquil sunset view over the turquoise Turks Island Passage.
