Have a smorgastic meal at Hemingway just like KCorbett1970 – just moments from your door as you walk to the beach.

Or, try zoning out on the white sands and enjoy some “family time” like glowfitnesstci

For the physically active, nothing beats swimming in the warm, azure blue ocean. It’s a dreamy, relaxing experience. Need we say more?

Kayaking is an awesome way to get to really know the true beauty of the Turks & Caicos. You can take guided or self-guided excursions.

Are you up for something really physically challenging? Kiteboarding requires real core strength, so if you’re interested, start slow. You’re going to have to practice plenty to get as good as these pros.

If that’s a little too sporty for you, don’t worry because adventures abound! Do you enjoy hiking? We suggest you take some time to hike the beautiful North Shore or check out the historical Crossing Place Trail – a path that was at one time an integral connected between communities in the North and Middle Caicos, and today offers beautiful views of Norbellis Coves coastline.

Just be sure to wear shoes with soles, and don’t touch the Coral Sumac, also known as Poisonwood, which grows along many trails. These plants cause rashes and blisters, so best to avoid them.

If snorkeling, snuba or scuba diving is your thing, you have the option of setting out directly from the beach to places like the Coral Gardens just down the beach, or the harder to find Smith’s Reef near Turtle Cove (which doesn’t cost anything).

However, if you really want to experience what the best coral reefs of Turks & Caicos, consider taking a snorkeling or scuba cruise to one of the many beautiful offshore reefs. A cruise will bring you to clearer water, more impressive corral formations and an abundant variety of sea creatures. For experienced divers, a cruise will bring you to the astonishing diversity of life down a one-thousand-foot sea wall that you will never tire of exploring.

Are you convinced yet? Then hop onto your computer, or pick up the phone right now to make a reservation with The Sands at Grace Bay, book your flight and start a real spring break holiday you will remember for a lifetime!

Heck, if you get down here right now, you can even take a glow worm tour – something you can only do a night or two after the full moon.

If you have survived the Polar Vortex, why not make plans for a quick escape to Provo on the Turks and Caicos?

The kids are out of school, to it’s a perfect time to enjoy clear blue skies, crystal-clear water and an island lifestyle that can’t be beat.

Here are 5 Caribbean spring break vacation ideas on Provo:

1. Visit the National Environmental Centre and Children’s Park

The National Environmental Centre (NEC), located on Lower Bight Road in Providenciales, opened its doors on April 21st,2007. The exhibits and displays within the Centre focus on the natural habitats and ecosystems of the Turks and Caicos Islands. There are also rotating exhibits, highlighting ongoing research activities in the Islands.

A Children’s Park is located nearby.

2. Visit Chalk Sound

The western half of Provo is mostly barren wilderness, home to the island’s best natural attraction, Chalk Sound National Park. The park is a three-mile-long (5km) bay a few miles southwest of downtown Providenciales. The color of the water is a uniform turquoise and studded with countless mushroom-like tiny islets. Also on the western part of the island is Northwest Point Marine National Park, which extends to nearby reefs and several saline lakes that attract breeding and migrant waterfowl. You’ll have to hike to get there.

3. Go horseback riding

Enjoy horseback riding on the beach and into the shallow waters with a backdrop of white sand and turquoise water. Ride along quiet dirt roads, canals and secluded beaches of Long Bay Hills, Providenciales in the beautiful Turks and Caicos Islands.

4. Thursday Fish Fry

Every Thursday from 5:30p to 9:30p at the Bight (Children’s) Park, over a dozen local food vendors, entertainers and cultural acts come together for Island Fish Fry to create an evening of “all things TCI.”

5. Relax on Grace Bay Beach

Recognized as one of the top 1o beaches in the entire world, Grace Bay Beach combines heavenly turquoise waters with powdery, soft sand, perfect for a romantic getaway, or a special retreat for your entire family.
