Turks and Caicos is one of the most
fabulous vacation spots in the Caribbean today, located just 575
southeast of Miami, right next to the Bahamas! This country of
40 islands and cays (pronounced "keys") is steeped in history
and mystique! Beautiful by Nature, the island’s slogan,
is so very appropriate! Grace Bay Beach on Provo, the moniker
for Providenciales, the country’s most inhabited island, has
been named one of the ten best beaches in the world by
several international travel magazines! This twelve mile
stretch of crystalline sand and sparkling water is spectacular!
And it is only one of hundreds of beaches which characterize
these tropical islands.
The Turks and Caicos have been known by scuba divers throughout the world to have pristine diving conditions. Not only are the diving conditions comfortably warm with outstanding visibility, divers can also experience a large variety of undersea life. Dive sites named Aquarium and Amphitheater provide some incite into the abundance of sea life. There are walls and swim-throughs, coral gardens and tunnels, schools of fish and seas of garden eels! Seeing large pelagics such as dophins, sharks and whales is almost common place! If you have never experienced scuba diving, take one of the many resort courses which will introduce you to this adventure! As the islands are being "discovered" by vacationers who are not divers, so are the opportunities for fun and holiday! The waters surrounding much of this country, the Caicos Banks, are a mere 12-15 feet deep for miles! Just imagine the snorkeling, the boating, the parasailing, the sailing, the windsurfing, the jet skiing, the kayaking and the fishing possibilities! Picture yourself boating to one of the smaller cays and picnicking on a secluded beach all by yourself! Or picture yourself joining the families on Grace Bay Beach where the water shimmers constantly, the waves lap their gentle song and the slow movement of the sporadic summer clouds entertain your imagination! Where there are constant easterly trade winds providing tropical breezes and where the average temperature is always about 85-90 degrees, vacationers can expect the surreal island atmosphere that has been the stuff of dreams. How about a round of golf on one of the Caribbean’s top ten courses? Enjoy the challenging course Provo has to offer. How about deep sea fishing? The Annual Billfish Tournament attracts anglers from all over the world! Or simply hire a guide and try your hand at bone fishing. There is so much! What vacation destination is perfect without the world class competition amongst the best chefs in the world that has come to Provo? A not so unknown fact about the Turks and Caicos Islands is that is has been the secret destination of dozens of popular film stars, athletes and business people for quite some time. Many of the superior restaurant services in the Turks and Caicos Islands have resulted from the occasional shuffling of the best personnel the food service has to offer! There are no fast food establishments here! The cuisine is extraordinary! The accommodations are unparalleled, too! Whether one chooses a wonderful upscale condominium or a private villa, luxury is expected! Even the few small guest hotels cater to the vacationer with care. Most of private villas are managed by their Owners, so you know you will be treated like Royalty! Make sure you contact the Owners and ask them what they think of the island life! You will have a friend for life! Once you visit one of the Turks and Caicos Islands residences, you may never want to go home! If you are interested in history, the Turks and Caicos Islands have a colorful one! But we cannot tell you everything.....you will have to save a bit of exploration for your visit!
