Top Excursions in Turks & Caicos
Here are seven unforgettable Turks & Caicos excursions to take your trip from beautiful to brag-worthy.
1. Kiteboarding in Long Bay Beach
Think of it as surfing, flying, and looking cool, all at once! Long Bay Beach is one of the best spots on the planet for kiteboarding, with steady winds and shallow turquoise water. Whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned pro, you’ll love gliding across the bay just minutes from your villa.

-
Ideal for all skill levels
-
Warm, waist-deep water
-
Reliable wind conditions

Steps from your villa
2. Boat Tour to Half Moon Bay

Book a catamaran or luxury yacht boat tour with your White Villas concierge and head straight to Half Moon Bay for that “stranded-on-a-tropical-island” vibe, minus the actual stranding.
