When traveling to the Turks and Caicos Islands, you will fly into
Providenciales International Airport (PLS). If you are going to an out island
then you can take a short flight from Provo or a ferry. You will be required to
bring a valid passport for entry into Providenciales. You will pass through
immigrations and customs as you enter the country. On your return, you will go
through customs at the point of entry into your home country.
After you clear customs, you can proceed to the rental car counter at the
airport. A rental car is recommended on Provo but not a necessity. There are
private drivers as well as taxis. Driving is on the left side of the road and
the steering wheels are also on the left. When you are crossing the street make
sure that you look to the right, as that is where the traffic is coming
from.
Provo is 38 square miles so there is plenty of area to explore. The
population is now over 6000. The native language is English and it is one of the
safest islands in the Caribbean. Provo is known for its gorgeous fine, white
sand beaches as well as the crystal clear blue water. The beach here has been
voted "best beach in all of the tropical islands of the world" by Conde Nast.
The Turks and Caicos Islands are also known as a great scuba diving destination.
Other recreational activities include 18-hole golf course, casino, 3 marinas,
the only conch farm in the world and many excellent restaurants. Also, soon
Provo will host the Indy Car Racing Series.
There are resorts and villas in Provo to fit every budget. With a villa
rental the rates depend on the number of travelers so even if there are just two
guests the rate can be comparable to a hotel. Plus you have the benefit of
privacy that you don't have at a large resort. Most of the villas have a private
pool, full kitchen, and are oceanfront with breathtaking views.
Consult a reputable agent that will provide personalized service and one that
works directly with the owners of the villas. A good agent will match you with
the right home or resort at no extra charge to you.
