Below we would like to provide some practical advice based on our experience in the country. One of the great advantages of having visited a place is the experience. In this case, we are talking about a country little known to European tourists. And we could almost say that it is a little-known destination for non-American tourists. We’re talking about the Turks and Caicos Islands!
Weather Tips
Despite the heat it usually gets in the area, a sweatshirt never hurts. Because? Outside, on the street or on the beach, it can be 30 degrees and quite humid. The sensation of heat will be high, without a doubt. But entering the Providenciales Airport with a T-shirt is crazy. We can have less than 20 degrees and be really cold. The same thing happens with airplanes. For example, the Providenciales-Puerto Plata flight with Inter caribbean is made in a Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter. That is a small plane that has absolutely nothing to do with the new Boeing Dreamliner or the Airbus A-350. On the take-off runway, we may be baking in the heat; At 3,000 meters above sea level, we can get really cold.
Sunscreen is more than mandatory. Not only if we want to lie on white sand beaches. We have to be aware that when we get out of the car or take a walk somewhere, the sun will hit us hard. In each person’s hand is carrying suntan lotion or sunscreen; factor 5 or factor 50. But you always have to be very careful with that.
A pen. Something as seemingly absurd as a pen. Because? An email confirms or denies the tourist visa. But in countries like the Turks and Caicos Islands, immigration control still requires filling out a paper. And for that, you need a pen, with blue or black ink.
Practical travel tips
How to get around Providenciales? The best option is a car, without a doubt. To rent it, you also have to know how to choose. Not only because of the price but also because of the location of the vehicle parking. In that sense, the best option is Grace Bay Car Rentals. For $50 we can have a Suzuki Swift-type utility vehicle. If we want to go to the Wheel and Settlement area, an all-terrain vehicle may be a better option. They are more expensive but they adapt to that type of terrain. Keep in mind that if you drive on the left, it is not difficult to change and there is little traffic on the island. However, you have to be careful and adapt quickly to change. You cannot take the vehicle off the island. That makes it very difficult to get to know other places.
