Providenciales Travel Guide
Providenciales The gorgeous 19km (12-mile) beach and pristine coastline of 98-sq.-km (38-sq.-mile) Providenciales (Provo) were a tourist development waiting to happen. In the early 1980s, hotel megaliths such as Club Med poured money into increasingly popular low-rise eco-conscious resorts.

This is where the action is, literally, with the bulk of the country's lodging, dining, tours, activities, and entertainment. Still, don't expect a bustling metropolis: Provo remains much sleepier than most other Caribbean islands—and that's a big part of its charm.
