There is a perfect piece of paradise in the Turks & Caicos Islands, in the outer archipelago of the Greater Antilles. It is called Providenciales, or Provo, and it is uniquely blessed with all the beauties of nature, a history both rich and colorful, and friendly and industrious native residents who are proud to call themselves "Belongers."

Just 575 nautical miles southeast of Miami and 90 miles southeast of the Bahamas, this British Crown Colony was originally inhabited by the Lucayan Indians. Reputed by many historians to be the first landfall of Christopher Columbus in the New World in 1492, the same exquisite sites that captured his attention remain unchanged today.
The country's eight Islands and over forty Cays are surrounded by crystal clear waters, sun swept white beaches and breathtaking coral reefs.  Each perfect day is followed by a sunset you just have to see to believe.
Development on Provo is tasteful, with consideration to its natural surroundings. There are no high rise structures, no crowds, no traffic jams.
And thus, the island has preserved a coveted, relaxed pace that vacationers and residents alike have searched the world for and found on Provo. Unspoiled. Beautiful. Inviting. Providenciales is the tropics as they were meant to be.
 
Beautiful By Nature
These words have been used thousands of times and over many years to describe the Turks & Caicos Islands. Nature here is beautiful and will stay that way for all to enjoy for many years to come because it is cherished and protected. The preservation of wildlife, unspoiled reefs, plantation ruins, hundred year old shipwrecks and shimmering waters is an integral part of day to day living.
The people who live here are committed to maintaining harmony between development and the fragile tropical environment. This commitment, coupled with a strong sense of pride in heritage, results in "Beautiful by Nature."
