If you love to relax under the warm Caribbean sunshine, caressed by gentle trade winds, lazily strolling the tide line...looking for shells on a deserted beach that stretches to a shimmering, emerald green horizon...then you'll fall in love with Providenciales, or "Provo" as we call it, in the Turks and Caicos Islands.

This island archipelago is blessed with flawless, white-sand beaches and the perfect climate to enjoy them year round. With aquamarine waters so serene, one can imagine Columbus sailing through in 1492 on his first voyage to The New World. Once discovered, the Turks & Caicos islands served as a pirate's lair for buccaneers out to plunder Spanish gold. Later, pilgrims found refuge here from Europe's Sixteenth Century religious wars, as did the Colonial Loyalists who had lost the American War of Independence. despite serving as a safe-haven, the islands then became a pawn in the political struggles among the French, Spanish and British.

Today these islands are a tranquil, unspoiled, tropical paradise...a British Crown Colony that has attracted people from its far-reaching Common-wealth of Nations, as well as from Europe and the Americas, where a careful balance between development and preservation is maintained. This balance offers a unique quality of life with all the modern comforts and conveniences and direct access to nature's profound creation - its 200 mile long coral reef ecosystem. Provo provides some of the finest diving, sailing and sport fishing in the world and features an abundance of birds and wildlife. The islands' pristine waters enjoy another distinction - 2500 Atlantic Humpback whales calve nowhere else in the world.

Whether you enjoy an active lifestyle or prefer just to lie back with that good book you've been promising yourself to read, Ocean Club is the perfect place. It's small beautifully landscaped, intimate and relaxing, where warm, friendly personal service is a reflection of our islands lifestyle. The accommodations are truly spacious and comfortable, with fully equipped kitchens and large screened balconies that overlook the stunning waters of Grace Bay.
