Discover Paradise on Earth…

The incredible beaches are among the main draws of the Turks & Caicos Islands. Pristine soft white sand (sometimes with a hint of pink) and crystal-clear turquoise waters instantly spark joy and restore calm.

Grace Bay Beach on the northeast coast of Providenciales with its stunning translucent waters has won many accolades including TripAdvisor’s Travellers’ Choice 2021 ‘Best of the Best Beaches’. It forms part of Princess Alexandra National Park which contains nature reserves, a huge variety of wildlife and beautiful barrier reefs.

The islands are rich in bright, bold colors; a veritable feast for the senses. Color is scientifically proven to lift our mood and the aquamarine blues, lush greens and vibrant flowers offer a visual tonic for frayed nerves.

Watersports & Activities

If you’re looking for an adrenaline buzz, you’ll be spoilt for choice with the many watersports and activities available on the islands. From SUP, kayaking and kiteboarding to snorkeling, scuba diving, horseback riding and fishing, there is a never a dull moment for those who like to keep busy. You can return home with a new skill or spend time indulging in a favorite pastime.

For a more relaxed experience, luxury charters and boat trips are the perfect way to explore spectacular beaches, uninhabited islands and beautiful coral reefs. As you take in the views you might spot wild dolphins and jumping eagle rays.

If romance is on the agenda, take a boat trip at sunset for a moment you’ll never forget.

Yoga & Wellness

More than ever, we need to focus on self-care, good health and mental wellbeing. It’s vital to have a break from the stresses of our demanding daily lives.

The Turks & Caicos Islands are renowned for world-leading Yoga & Wellbeing Retreats which provide guests with an upscale sanctuary in which to switch off, relax deeply and rejuvenate body and soul.

Our four handpicked luxury wellness resorts offer innovative spa treatments, personalized nutrition plans, ancient healing practices and daily yoga classes. You’ll return home with a clear mind, a flexible body and a refreshed perspective on life.

Fine Dining

The islands are a gourmet’s paradise with a huge range of restaurants to choose from. Laid back fine dining is the order of the day. Menus typically feature mouth-watering, innovative twists on local cuisine using fresh produce such as tropical fruits, spices, herbs and exotic seafood.

On Providenciales, Coyaba is an award-winning open-air restaurant in a lush tropical garden setting. Headed up by British chef Paul Newman, you’ll find unusual fusions of flavor and beautifully-presented cuisine using sustainable produce from local fishermen and farmers.

On North Caicos, Barracuda Beach Bar is the epitome of a relaxed Caribbean shack on the beach with unbeatable views. Serving casual hamburgers and conch to customers whose feet rest in the sand, owner Susie’s tales of island life are as much a part of the appeal as the delicious food.

Expect to find an impressive list of outstanding rums from the region on offer at most restaurants.
