What to do and see in Providenciales, Turks and Caicos: The Best Hidden Gems Things to do

January 31, 2022 Kaleigh Reichenbach

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.

SNUBA Turks and Caicos

SNUBA is a great way to see the marine life without having to take all the diving courses that can take up your valuable vacation time. Go 20ft underwater and view the amazing marine life that you can not see while snorkeling. Safe and easy for ages 8 and up.SNUBA/snorkel 1/2 day boat tours available from my new 38ft power catamaran.

Provo Ponies

Provo Ponies is a small riding stable located on the southeast end of the island of Providenciales. We do two guided rides a day, morning ride at 9:30am and an afternoon ride at 3:00pm during winter hours, 3:30pm during the summer. We can take all experience levels from 7 years old and up. Everyone rides their own horse or pony, no double riding. We have a 230 pound weight limit. Groups are never more than 12 riders. Private rides are available. Anyone under 18 must wear a helmet. We ride along quiet dirt roads and trails to Long Bay Beach, a 4 mile long beach. We do our best not to do nose to tail type rides, and more experienced riders are given the chance to trot or canter along the beach depending on the tides. The shallow waters of the Caicos Banks off Long Bay make it an ideal place to take horse into the ocean. You can book a 60 or a 90 minute ride. We can arrange for transportation to & from your resort, reservations are required. We are a fully insured and licensed business.
