The Color and Culture of the Turks and Caicos

Been There Done That· Travel Inspiration

~My current location and mode of transportation~

Thanks to a perfectly timed (and much needed) invitation from the Ocean Club Resorts, I am spending a week in the paradise known as Provodenciales in the Turks and Caicos.  I am much to blissed out by the sheer beauty of this somewhat hidden island to be bothered with details like stringing together coherent sentences, so a few pictures will have to do.

    This place looks AMAZING! Look how blue that water is. I'm so jealous. Hope you had (are having?) a great time!

    I don't often hear about Turks & Caicos. Looks very beautiful. And very laid-back.

    Wow that looks like heaven!  T&C are on my list but I think its just moved up higher after seeing these gorgeous photos!  It was voted number 1 beach last year and ever since then I wanted to go (beach fan!).  I have been trying to get a housesit there ever since!  One day… 🙂

    Turks and Caicos looks stunning! We were meant to stop there on a cruise a couple of years ago but high winds and rough seas kept us from the port. It was such a disappointment and your photos definitely make me want to plan a visit!

    Beautiful pictures, Jessica. It looks like this may be just the relaxation you needed. Are those conch fritters I see on that plate? Mmmm.. delish.

    Love the photos. I can honestly say I have never actually seen a conch still in its shell. =)

    Well there you go, now I'm jealous!  How wonderful does that beach look?  I could really be in for some "reading on the beach" 🙂

    Gosh, I don't think there is one person who would not love to be at Provodenciales.  These photos are too much information!  Hasn't that man come up with a great way to read while keeping cool 🙂

    I've been reading more and more that Turks and Caicos is a fantastic vacation spot for families. It's on my short list of places to take my kids very soon.

    Have an awesome time. It looks gorgeous!

    Fantastic colours and a place that looks like it will offer plenty of relaxation. I love your first shot.

    Is there space on a deckchair beside you? These colours are completely overwhelming and gorgeous. When you've relaxed completely, do fill in the details, I know very little about the Turks and Caicos apart fromt he fact they have the coollest name.

    How beautiful and serene. I have always wanted to go to these islands, and now that I have seen your photo tour, I desire to go has heightened significantly!
