Things To Do

Princess Alexandra National Park, a marine preserve, includes the reef and encompasses two of the small cays off the northeastern tip of the island; the park’s waters are home to bottlenose dolphins. Another national park encompasses Chalk Sound, a 3-mile- (5-km-) long bay in the southwest whose uniformly turquoise waters contain numerous tiny islets. Northwest Point National Park protects a strip of sea off the northwest coast and includes reefs and breeding grounds for seabirds as well as the pristine and undeveloped Malcolm Roads Beach. Of historical interest are a large number of engravings made on exposed limestone by shipwrecked sailors in the hills near Sapodilla Bay to memorialize the names of their ships. Near Discovery Bay are the ruins of settlers’ homes, including Cheshire Hall, a cotton plantation built by an English settler in the early 19th century. Providenciales has a branch of Turks and Caicos Islands Community College. Area 38 square miles (98 square km). Pop. (2012) including West Caicos, 23,769.

Found off the south coast of Providenciales near Chalk Sound, Sapodilla Bay is a 900 foot (275 meter) long stretch of sheltered beach. The water here is very shallow, calm and clear, and is an excellent choice for families and those visiting with small children.

This beach is a 10 mile (16km) drive from the central tourism region and resorts of Grace Bay.

Sapodilla Bay offers an interesting setting. There are luxury vacation villason the beach and surrounding coastal cliffs, private yachts anchor in the bay, and the nearby Chalk Sound area is beautiful..

The ocean water temp in the Turks and Caicos is always great, yet the sheltered coast of Sapodilla Bay and Taylor Bay tend to have even warmer water due to localised heating by the sun.

The world-famous Grace Bay Beach of course sees far more guests, however, Sapodilla Bay can feel a little more crowded on busy days due to the limited extent of the beach.

Set sail for a relaxing day on the Caribbean Sea on this catamaran cruise from Providenciales. Sail along Grace Bay while looking out for dolphins, then jump off board at a prime snorkeling spot to explore the underwater world and spot iguanas at Little Water Cay. Afterward, enjoy some rum punches with lunch before returning.

Our trademark jet ski assisted lessons allow us to conduct our lessons far away from the other schools close to the beach. Learn in plenty of space without other students coming close and making you feel nervous.

Maximize your time on the water - We shuttle you upwind so you can ride for longer!

Despite what you might see advertised, we are the only kite school on island to offer jet ski service with our lessons. Zodiacs and small boats might get there eventually, but nothing beats the speed, efficiency and safety of the jet ski, with no outboard motors to worry about.

Malcolm’s Road is a beautiful and secluded beach that’s found off the remote west coast of Providenciales. This beach is about 1.3 miles long (2 km). The exclusive Amanyara resort is found at the southern end of the coast, and the northern side eventually becomes low limestone ironshore cliffs as it leads towards Northwest Point.

One unique aspect of Malcolm’s Road is that it’s located close to the wall, which is the sheer drop-off on the edge of the underwater Caicos Islands plateau. The feature surrounds much of the Caicos Islands group and offers some of the best scuba diving in the region, yet nearly all other beaches on Providenciales are quite a distance the wall, and are protected by the barrier reef as well.

Sharkbite Bar and Grill is a popular Turks and Caicos restaurant and bar, with a casual atmosphere and waterfront location at the Turtle Cove Marina. Sharkbite serves a very wide menu, with an emphasis on bar and grill favorites.
