Going to Provo? – Bravo!
Provo – that’s what they call Providenciales, a 25-mile long island in the Turks and Caicos, around forty miles from the Bahamas. It is a cool, happening vacation destination for couples, groups of friends traveling during spring break, families on holiday, and pleasure travelers. Water babies will really have a whale of a time here, diving in the crystal clear waters to watch schools of colorful fish swim in Provo’s coral reefs. Grace Bay, endowed with a 12-mile long white sand beach, is best described as heaven on earth.
Besides scuba diving and snorkeling amidst Provo’s coral reefs, swimmers are in for an unforgettable experience – they can go swimming with dolphins and whales. Sounds scary? In the Turks and Caicos, you have the option of sitting in a boat to watch migrating whales between January and March, every year. Glass-bottom boats are convenient for those who want to see the rich marine fauna and flora of Provo’s coral reefs but don’t want to get their feet wet. Underwater tours in submersibles can take you for a closer look at stingrays and turtles darting in and out of Provo’s coral reefs. Chartering boats for a whole day or a part of the day, or going for a sunset cruise allow you to choose your favorite place for fishing or go for that romantic picnic on a deserted beach. Every visitor to the island learns to love the sea and finds nature’s beauty in the form of Provo’s coral reefs awe-inspiring.
Thrill seekers will get a kick out of exploring shipwrecks and hunting for sunken treasure in Provo’s coral reefs. If you are interested in unique pieces of art, you have come to the right place – conch shell art has been perfected by talented craftsmen to include a wide variety of knick knacks and unusual jewelry that you may want to buy for yourself or take back home as gifts.
