Providenciales, Turks & Caicos - Snorkel & Conch Tour HD (2013)
Providenciales is an island in the Turks and Caicos Islands. The island has an area of 98 km2 (38 sq mi) and an approximate population of 32,000, making it the largest island in population and the third largest in area. It is served by the Providenciales International Airport. Providenciales was ranked the best beach destination in the world by TripAdvisor in 2011.
As recently as 1964, Providenciales did not have a single wheeled vehicle. Following in the footsteps of Club Med, the island's first large hotel and casino complex opened in 1984 and touched off a development boom. Provo is now the most tourist-oriented and developed of the Turks and Caicos Islands, boasting many resort hotels and an 18-hole golf course. The island has recently become popular with retirees from around the world, kindling a boom of residential development. Grace Bay has seen many luxury condos built on its shores, however the settlements of Turks Islanders still provide a local flair to the island.
The resorts on Providenciales are primarily centered on 5 miles (8.0 km) long Grace Bay. Apart from the beaches, the island's charm lies in its rugged hills and ridges, which are carpeted with prickly pear cactus and scrub. The trump card, however, remains the world class diving: miles and miles of coral reefs are close to shore and the island is close to a common migration route for the Humpback whale. Providenciales is surrounded by uninhabited cays that are easily reached by chartered boat or excursion.
Before Provo became a popular tourist destination, there were three small centers of population: Blue Hills, The Bight (on Grace Bay) and Five Cays. Now many houses have been built, predominantly in the east and south, with larger communities at Leeward, Long Bay and Chalk Sound, as well as expansion of the original three settlements. There are also pockets of makeshift shacks interspersed among the more upscale residences.
Grace Bay has grown to be a major tourist destination with many hotels and condominiums built on the beach front.
The communities of Downtown and Kew Town are located near the airport. The major road, the Highway, runs east—west from Downtown to Leeward. Most of the island's services are near the Highway, including upscale shopping malls. They are also found in the commercial developments of Grace Bay, in support of the tourism market.
Opportunities for sightseeing and hiking are reasonable. There are remnants of Caribbean pirates at Osprey Rock and Sapodilla Hill, and the ruins of Cheshire Hall, a 1790s plantation house constructed by British loyalists, are also notable.
The western half of Providenciales is mostly barren wilderness, home to the island's best natural attraction, Chalk Sound National Park. The park is a 3 miles (4.8 km) long bay southwest of Downtown. The color of the water is a uniform turquoise and studded with countless mushroom-like tiny islets. Also on the western part of the island is Northwest Point Marine National Park, which extends to nearby reefs and several saline lakes that attract breeding and migrant waterfowl.

JOURNAL ENTRY 5/4/17 THE BAHAMAS
As we approached Green Turtle Cay we came upon what looked to be a delightful little anchorage at Settlement Harbour. We dropped the anchor and spent a calm evening in a protected, but gusty anchorage.
We were excited to find this little spot, because of it's proximity to No Name Cay. We had recently found out that there are pigs living on the island, much like the more popular and well known pigs at Big Major Spot in the Exumas. There were a lot more pigs here in the Abacos, but they were definitely more smelly, gross and aggressive. There were lots of cute baby pigs to look at, but we were not able to get very close to many of them due to the mother pigs being very protective of them.
After a very brief pig diversion we got back to our more important task of finding dinner. One thing that we've really noticed in the Abacos is how much more reef access there is compaired to the Exumas. We motored around to the outer windward side of No Name Cay were there is no shortage of fish filled reefs and again easy access to tons of dive moorings.
After catching a fish for dinner we motored back to Turtle to find that our boat had moved about 200 feet from where we left it. It is a mystery to us how it randomly moved, even after being anchored there all night in gusty conditions. Our guess at the time was that one of the boats anchored next to us must have snagged our anchor line when they left the anchorage.
The weather forecast is showing the wind boxing the campus during the next couple of days, so we want to make sure we are in a well protected anchorage. White Sound looks like it will be the perfect spot for us, but we have to wait for high tide to get in through the channel with our 5' keel.
Upon dropping anchor at White Sound we noticed that our anchor wasn't catching the bottom at first. Randall dove on the anchor once we got a good tug, and found that our anchor was snagged on a large piece of chain. It is probably the only thing that stopped us from dragging further in the pudding like bottom. He also found a lot of random junk on the bottom of the bay, like an outboard motor, and engine block, and lots of chain and ropes. We later found out that this anchorage has a history of boats dragging and probably isn't the safest place to leave your boat during storms. Who knows, maybe the bottom at Settlement Harbour has a similar bottom too.
We are so relieved to have found such a well protected anchorage and we're looking forward to exploring this island and taking it easy for the next couple of days while we wait for the weather.
