PROVIDENCIALES

Turks & Caicos

Who’s in for a total detox? We are, and this week’s #KRAVESCAPE we’re talking about Providenciales (also known as ‘Provo’); the capital of Turks and Caicos. Pristine white sands, a surprisingly delicious food scene, and exuberant island vibes *bless* oh, the endless crystal clear waters that shines intensely-turqoise hues will relieve any stress one may face.

the area will be preferred for those who like to have the beach for themselves, as there are only a few resorts on this side of the island. Alternatively, wade in the shallows with a group of gentle ponies for a less-active activity.

Head over to Long Bay Beach if you are keen to look for that wonderful spot for kitesurfing. Stretching along the northwest coast of Providenciales,

For those who’d like to go stand up paddle boarding or kayaking can head to Leeward Beach or Princess Alexandra Nature Reserve, as one can paddle through the incredible nature preservation that is their mangrove ecosystem. Now that we’ve gone over, what about going under? Be sure to snorkel and/or scuba-dive at Leeward Reef that’s teeming with a wide variety of fishes, too.

Da Conch Shack

What’s more fitting to eat on an island other than seafood? An establishment on Provo for many years, the brightly-colored Da Conch Shack is famously known for its incredibly-cooked Caribbean cuisine. Would you like your conch broiled, spiced, cracked or fried? Try any, as all would be done so to absolute perfection. Located near the main stretch of Grace Bay Beach, chow down and dine with your feet in the sand or wooden deck, right at the water’s edge...

For a posher option, dine at the palm-fringed Coyaba for even more Caribbean-tinged dishes and ridiculously delicious desserts. Before you go on and order their popular lobster thermidor in Dijon-mushroom cream sauce, try several different appetizers: like the guava-and-tamarind barbeque ribs, or the coconut-shrimp tempura, among other mouthwatering options in the menu! If you enjoy creative menus, then Coyaba is not one to miss. And definitely don’t. Skip. Dessert.

Let the gentle ocean breeze take your worries away at the COMO Parrot Cay; a serene beach-side retreat set in the sparkling waters of the beautiful Caribbean. Fittingly, the purity of nature is reflected in the white décor and simple teak furnishings of the suites! Find healing through yoga or the Ayurvedic therapies offered at the COMO Shambhala Spa, or laze away at the COMO Beach Club overlooking the ocean. Whichever you choose – end it with a sunset, seen through the salty breeze stirring through the drapes…

Tucked away at the coast of Northwest Point of Providenciales, Amanyara is perfectly located in one of the world’s best scenery to be seen both above and below the deep blue…
