Grace Bay Beach…..it’s the best in the world.

Grace Bay beach from up high….simply stunning

WE’RE ONE OF THE BEST BEACHES IN THE WORLD. What is there to say but that we’ve known this all along….exquisite powder white sand with the most turquoise blue waters anywhere.

Endlessly turquoise waters stretch as far up the coastline as the eye can see.

GRACE BAY BEACH extends for some 7 1/2 miles or 12 km right from the entrance to Turtle Cove Marina to the eastern portion of Leeward on Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands.

Sparkling waters of Grace Bay on a calm afternoon

Grace Bay Beach was named after Grace Jane Hutchings the wife of the  Commissioner of the Turks and Caicos from 1933-1934.

Grace Bay Beach is possibly the best beach in the world.

Grace Bay is about 3 miles long. It connects to Leeward Beach on its eastern side and  to the Bight Beach on the west end all the way down to the entrance to Turtle Cove Marina.

The water is truly this beautiful with powdery white sand

The calmness of the water is because of a barrier reef about a mile away from shore.        It’s not hard to find photos as each and every one shows how spectacular this beach is.

You can clearly see the deep blue and the few waves breaking over the reef just outside Turtle Cove Marina

One of my favourite stretches along Grace Bay beach

What a beautiful calm evening to do some exercise

The sunsets are always an enjoyable end to your day especially on Grace Bay beach

Harbour Club Villas and Marina

Six villas with lake views and a private marina for scuba dive boats

Harbour Club Villas and Marina is a cluster of six, one bedroom villas or cottages, that sits on a rise between two waterfronts. Villas overlook Flamingo Lake, a bone fishing lake, and the ocean at Cooper Jack Bight on Provo’s more tranquil south side.

Harbour Club Villas is a unique place to do social distancing while you vacation in paradise.
A one-of-a-kind estate with individual villas that are ideal for people wanting to go on holiday together but at the same time, retain some privacy.
