Turks & Caicos Islands

Top Travel Highlights in the Turks & Caicos Islands

• Grace Bay Beach is consistently voted one of the best beaches in the world. It’s powdery white sand and impossibly clear turquoise water make it the perfect location to relax and let your troubles melt away in the warm sunshine.
• Snorkel the third largest barrier reef system in the world. Just a few minutes in a boat from your Grace Bay hotel, you will be swimming with hundreds of colorful marine species. Consider taking a half day cruise with one of our wonderful boat charter companies. The perfect way to spend a morning or an afternoon here in TCI.
• Go shopping in town. Grace Bay is an easily walkable town with plenty of boutiques and shops to peruse. Bring home some local rum or rum cake, items made from local conch, or some salts from our sister islands.
• Visit Long Bay Beach – a global kiteboarding destination, this beach on the south east of Providenciales is a different vibe from Grace Bay. Sit and watch the kiteboarders performing flips and tricks while enjoying the constant breeze.
• Take a rescue puppy for a beach walk. Stop by Potcake Place in the morning and you will be provided with water, treats, and everything needed to care for one of the adorable rescue puppies for a couple of hours. These animals are in need of human interaction, so plenty of cuddles are in order!
• Enjoy our incredible dining scene. For a tiny little island, there are countless options for dining out on Providenciales. From cool beach bars like Somewhere Café, to fine dining options such as Coco Bistro, there is something to please everyone. Our chefs come from all over the world to showcase their talents here in Turks and Caicos.
• Visit the Thursday night Fish Fry. Local vendors and restaurants all come together in the Bight for visitors to enjoy local food, music and an appearance by the high energy We Funk Junkanoo band.
• Chalk Sound National Park is a stunning, landlocked lagoon on the southwest coast filled with brilliant blue water and hundreds of small limestone cays. Also home to Taylor Bay and Sapodilla Bay, gorgeous beaches with shallow water for hundreds of yards, making them perfect for families with young children.
