The 10 Best Things to do in Providenciales, Turks and Caicos

June 3, 2021 Diedre Savory

The most populated of the Turks and Caicos islands, Providenciales is one of the world’s top beach destinations. The diving and snorkeling is as convenient as it is stunning, thanks to miles of coral reef that’s easily accessible from the shore. The upscale resorts and captivating beachscapes of Grace Bay make it a popular choice for waterfront escapes. The cliffs and crags of Chalk Sound make a lovely backdrop for kayaking the bright turquoise waters.

Half Moon Bay

Luxury beach

Reviewed By Karpk503 - London, United Kingdom

Worth a visit while in Provo. I got there via a boat drop-off that included a guided tour of the Iguana Island. Make sure to go through the vegetation and through to a pristine little beach adjacent to Half Moon Bay beach on Little Water Cay. The actual Half Moon Bay beach is pristine yet there's quite a bit of boat traffic going through and lots of people getting on and off boats. There's no on-foot access to the beach from Leeward, you have to arrive by boat. Caribbean Cruisin' has affordable options to get to the beach. They're located near the TCI ferry in the easternmost Leeward.

Visited the brewery for the first time and it was great and informative learning about the history of the local beer and the achievements it is continuing to make. The tour guide made it very interesting, great information and conversation. The new flavours they have are also great to try. I recommend it

Bight Reef

An underwater paradise of coral reefs.

Reviewed By B5203RGerinp

Highly recommend taking a day to explore Bright Reef. Snorkeling is a must. Just remember to stay outside of the buoyed/roped off area. If you don't you will get yelled at. The furthest edge of the roped off area is the best part to explore and you will see the most wildlife there. We saw multiple sea turtles when we went. We bought our snorkeling gear at a local grocery store for $30 so we were able to use it for multiple days.

Taylor Bay Beach

Reviewed By travelbug1031 - Lynbrook, United States

This beach. It’s gorgeous!!! Perfect powdery sand, also packs well so it’s perfect for sand castles. The water is just perfection, it’s shallow, so great for the kids. It’s like a lagoon. You can walk so far out!!! And no waves, it’s peaceful and the kids can just be and play!!! We rented a car so we parked on the side street. There’s a path, where it says ocean front, brings you right down to the beach. Bring towels, food, water and snacks- and an umbrella if you can! The sun is super hot. And you’re not gonna wanna leave, and neither will the kids!
