Provodenciales General Overview
The island of Providenciales in Turks Caicos, or more commonly known as "Provo", covers an area of 38 miles in the Caribbean. This stunning island, ranked 'Best Beach by Conde Nast, has a great range of luxury hotels along the North Coast of Grace Bay, just a few km from the huge kitesurf lagoon of Long Beach. Planet offer direct 9 hour flights from the UK making this one of the most accessible luxury kitesurf destinations in our programme. Provodenciales offers a unique huge shallow flat water kitesurfing area which is perfect for beginners and improvers, very hard to find in the Caribbean.
For the non kiting partner or family Provo has numerous restaurants, spas and shopping facilities, as well as a championship caliber Golf course. Provo also offer exceptional diving and snorkeling for underwater lovers; for more on this see our Planet Dive Holidays website.
The two main and oldest settlements on the island are the Bight and Blue Hills, and are built around fresh water supplies. Both locations give a real feeling of Caribbean villages. If you wish to do some shopping, Provo can offer a good range of boutiques at Turtle Cove and along the quickly developing Grace Bay Road. Down Town you will find the retail shops, business offices and banks.

Planet offers free hotel collection for pre-booked kitesurfing or we can include car hire within your holiday at very competitive rates.
The best kitesuf season for Turks & Caicos is from November to April. The huge shallow flat water lagoonal kitesurfing area in Providenciales is just about the best beginner to improver location in the Caribbean during the winter wind season!

We lose sleep so you don’t.
We take every booking personally. Anything that doesn't look right, anything that needs chasing, we're the ones awake worrying about it, so you're not.
Your money goes into trust
Not into our bank account. It sits with an independent trustee and is only released after you have travelled. If we stopped trading tomorrow it would still be there, and it would come back to you.
We book it all, and then check it
Flights, transfers, the room you actually chose, your lessons. Confirmed before you fly, not arranged when you land. We don't book the cheapest transfer: drivers who turn up and speak English.
We call you before you go
Documents, visas, kit, anything you're unsure about. A real conversation with the person who booked it, not an automated reminder.
We're on WhatsApp the whole time you're away
Any hour, any country. Flight moved, room not right, lessons cancelled for weather: one number, answered by someone who already knows your booking.
Talk to a Kitesurf travel expert, not a call centre.
Tell us your dates, your level and what a perfect week looks like. We'll come back with a shortlist of spots with the right conditions and the right hotel, usually within one working day.
