Providenciales - Known as Provo to Island Insiders
It seems that most Caribbean destinations have a signature attraction and Providenciales, often referred to as Provo, is no exception. In a country themed "Beautiful By Nature", one such trademark is a magnificent span of pristine white sand beach which visitors can lazily stroll for 12 miles. Complimenting the soft, low lying dunes is a ribbon of sparkling clear turquoise sea.
Now the most developed island in the Turks & Caicos for tourism, Providenciales has a variety of world-class accommodations just waiting to be discovered. Many new projects are currently underway including several condominiums. The island is experiencing an unprecedented boom in real estate sales and development.
Providenciales along with its world-class diving also boasts an 18-hole championship golf course, ranked in the top 10 best Caribbean golf courses by "Caribbean Travel & Life" and is listed in the top 20 hot spots in the world for billfishing by "Sport Fishing" magazine. On land or on sea you will find plenty of activities to lure you off the beaches. A day of sailing may be just the treat that you are seeking.
Dining on Providenciales offers a variety of culinary experiences available at many excellent restaurants.
While the island lacks the large shopping malls common to some Caribbean destinations there are many "pockets" of retail activity available to our visitors. You pay NO sales tax on purchases and many items are "duty-free."
