Bay Cay is fun to explore. There’s a small and sheltered beach, cliffs, iguanas, and an interesting ambiance. Bay Cay supports a large population of iguanas, and is a great place to watch and photograph the endangered species, as the iguanas on the cay are very approachable. Small nurse sharks and stingrays can also be seen in the shallows off the north side of the cay. The water on is shallow and is the perfect spot for pictures!

Pirates Cove is a scenic area at the southwest point of Providenciales. This coastal setting offers several interesting features, including a small peninsula with sea cliffs, a small open-faced cave, and about a mile (1.6 km) of secluded beach. The West Harbour Bluff area is one of the more remote sections of Providenciales. The view from the top of the peninsula is quite impressive. To the north, the beaches and shallows of the Frenchman’s Creek Nature Reserve can be seen. To the southwest, you can see West Caicos. If you’re lucky, you may spot a shark in the water below, or find one of the 200-year-old inscriptions left in the rock by past shipwrecked sailors. The West Harbour Bluff area provides a secluded beach with amazing turquoise water. The water and pristine beach make it a perfect location for pictures!

Sapodilla Bay Beach and Taylor Bay Beach is found off the south coast of Providenciales near Chalk Sound. This beautiful 900-foot-long (275 m) stretch of sheltered beach has shallow water that is clear and calm. Sapodilla Bay offers an interesting setting. There are luxury vacation villas on the beach and surrounding coastal cliffs, private yachts that anchor in the bay, and the nearby wonders of the Chalk Sound area. The ocean water temperature in the Turks and Caicos is always great, yet the sheltered coast of Sapodilla Bay and Taylor Bay tend to have even warmer water due to localized heating by the sun. The shallow warm water makes a great location to relax. Sapodilla Beach and Taylor Bay Beaches are a perfect backdrop for pics, videos, and making memories!
