Experience the adventurous side of Turks and Caicos

14 August 2026

This corner of the Caribbean has all the ingredients for an easy Caribbean escape, from the powder-soft sands of Grace Bay to brilliantly clear water made for long afternoons by the sea. But spend a little more time here, and there’s another side to the islands worth exploring. You can kayak through mangroves, snorkel over coral reefs, venture across to North and Middle Caicos, and seek out local food and music back on Providenciales. Better still, these experiences can easily sit alongside slower beach days, giving you a holiday that feels adventurous without needing to be action-packed from morning to night.

Experience the adventurous side of Turks and Caicos

Go island-hopping to North and Middle Caicos

Providenciales may be the best-known base in Turks and Caicos, but taking the ferry across to North and Middle Caicos opens up a very different side of the destination. A full-day guided trip can take you between limestone caves, quiet beaches, coastal viewpoints, and nature sites, with far fewer of the resort surroundings associated with Grace Bay. It’s a chance to cover more ground, see some of the islands’ dramatic scenery, and turn a Caribbean beach holiday into something much more varied.

Take to the water, from mangroves to coral reefs

Some of the best adventures here happen on the water. Guided kayaking and paddleboarding trips head into the mangroves around Providenciales for a quieter eco-experience, while snorkelling excursions venture out to nearby coral reefs. If you want to take things further, you could add a sunset catamaran cruise or even horse riding along the shoreline. And because none of it needs to fill an entire day, there’s still plenty of time to head back to Grace Bay afterwards for a swim, a leisurely lunch, or a few hours doing very little at all.

Spend an evening like a local

Exploring Turks and Caicos isn’t limited to beaches and boat trips. A guided tour of Providenciales can introduce you to more of the island and its local flavours, while some of the most enjoyable experiences happen after sunset. Thursday’s Fish Fry brings together food, music, and local crafts, and Wednesday evenings at the Conch Shack offer beachfront dining, live music, and, naturally, plenty of conch. Add an afternoon browsing Saltmills Plaza, and there are plenty of ways to break up those beach days without travelling far.

Make your Turks and Caicos escape as adventurous as you like

The beauty of seeing this side of Turks and Caicos is that you can choose exactly how far you want to take it. Spend one day snorkelling and the next at the spa, swap the sun lounger for an ATV or off-road adventure, book a private beach dining experience, or simply leave a few days completely free. With accommodation, activities, and pacing all able to be tailored, your Travel Counsellor can bring together the experiences that suit you, while making sure there’s still plenty of time for the beaches that brought you here in the first place.

Experience boutique beachfront living in Mexico

14 August 2026

For those who like their Caribbean escape with a little more character, The Fives Oceanfront offers boutique luxury right on the beachfront in Puerto Morelos. This former fishing village has kept a noticeably slower pace than some of the Riviera Maya’s larger resorts, with local restaurants, small shops, and the town’s leaning lighthouse all within easy reach. Back at the hotel, the atmosphere is equally laid-back, with contemporary design, plenty of space to switch off, and the Caribbean Sea taking centre stage.

Singapore through the seasons: why there’s always something to celebrate

10 August 2026

Singapore may be compact, but its calendar is packed with celebrations that can transform an already memorable city break into something even more special. Throughout the year, its neighbourhoods are illuminated by festival lights, the Marina Bay skyline becomes the backdrop for fireworks and motor racing, and streets fill with parades, markets, music, and food. Many events reflect Singapore’s multicultural identity, giving visitors the chance to experience Chinese, Malay, Indian, and international traditions within the same city. You don’t necessarily need to plan your entire holiday around one event, either. Time your visit well, and Singapore’s annual celebrations can add colour, flavour, and a real sense of occasion to the attractions, restaurants, and neighbourhoods already on your itinerary.

Why Portugal is the perfect destination for every type of traveller

10 August 2026

Some destinations ask you to choose between a city break and a beach holiday, culture and nature, or relaxation and adventure. Portugal makes it surprisingly easy to experience them all. Its size means you can explore Lisbon’s historic neighbourhoods, unwind beside the Atlantic, taste wine among the terraces of the Douro Valley, and hike through mountain or volcanic landscapes, sometimes within the same trip. Add a mild climate, warm hospitality, and a distinctive regional food scene, and it is easy to understand why so many people return to discover a different side of the country. Whether you are planning your first visit or looking for fresh inspiration, there is a version of Portugal to suit almost every kind of holiday.
