Once a homeland for pirates, this northern Caribbean haven has now become one of the most sought-after tourist destinations compared to its surrounding archipelagos. The significant island of Providenciales, recognized as Provo, had its first resort constructed in the 1980s.

Chill in Grace Bay

There are many beautiful coasts and white sand beaches in Turks and Caicos. However, when it comes to this magnificent expanse of Providenciales, there’s something extraordinary to remember.

Across the winding sandbanks of the north coast, the Caribbean waterfront is all you will need to enjoy. The sea is a striking turquoise, accompanied by white sands. Grace Bay is also close to most of the island’s most luxurious villas and hotels.

Experience Bight Reef

From Grace Bay in Providenciales, you’ll discover a walkway off the coast close to the Coral Gardens. Take the route to the floating buoys, which will lead you through your Bight Reef snorkel adventure. A succession of posters will assist you to recognize the distinct animals you’ll discover along the journey.

 

Regardless of which of the mini-caves and nooks you discover, many kinds of colorful fish could be seen popping to and from their home. If you’re fortunate, you might even witness a sea turtle swimming in the vicinity. The water can be as shallow as 3 ft and as deep as 16 ft, so the diverse reef fits all levels of snorkeling expertise.

Get Kiteboarding Lessons

Turks and Caicos are still a bit of an unexplored spot between many kite surfers. Nevertheless, the water and wind conditions on the Atlantic coast render one of the finest for learners and experts alike. Long Bay is a famous spot just 5 minutes away from Grace Bay!

Traverse the Bird Rock Point Heritage Field Road

Discover the lush shoreline coppice landscape at Bird Rock Point Heritage Fields. Surrounded by a suburban community, the coppice is approximately 111 acres in size with a conch farm and near the Caicos Banks. Start exploring the mangrove areas, stroll across the coastal coves, or appreciate the seagrass fields just a few steps from the coast. If you’re a wildlife enthusiast, you should never miss this place.

A Dose of History at the Turks & Caicos National Museum

Concealed behind all the charismatic imperial façade of romantic terraces, the Turks & Caicos National Museum is one of the most beautiful historic sites in Cockburn Town. The structure is also known as the Guinep House. Assumed to sink around the 1500s, the ruins of this Spanish caravel provide a vision of the empires which traversed the island.

The displays present the heritage of the islanders and the native tribes of Luca who lived here before the Europeans arrived.
