“Just One Day” takes us to Providenciales in the Turks & Caicos Islands. The Turks & Caicos Islands include 40 islands and cays, eight of which are inhabited. Grand Turk is the center of government for the islands, but the islands are probably best known for the island of Providenciales, home to what is often regarded as one of the best beaches in the world, Grace Bay Beach. You had better believe that this day includes beach time, and loads of it, but it also includes some great food along the way. Let’s start the day with a good breakfast at Bay Bistro. Bay Bistro is located in the Sibonne…

When people think of the Turks & Caicos Islands, they often think of Providenciales, the tourism center of the islands, famous for the gorgeous stretch of powdery sand which is Grace Bay Beach. The Turks & Caicos Islands are actually 40 islands and cays, 8 of which are inhabited. Among the inhabited islands is Middle Caicos, known for the handmade baskets made from reeds and grasses from the marshes and fields of the island. The Middle Caicos Coop was formed to preserve the art of Caribbean basketry. We picked up this treasure on our first trip to the islands in 2006. On the second Saturday of each month, the…

Courtesy of Da Conch Shack, on Providenciales in the Turks & Caicos Islands, is this beautifully prepared conch salad, pulled fresh from the ocean. Once the conch shell hits the work table, they knock a hole in the top of the shell, to expose the tendon which holds the conch inside. In one swift motion with his knife, the tendon is cut, the meat extracted, and the shell is tossed. Be sure to enjoy the delicious result with a cold Carib or one of Da Conch Shack’s fabulous rum punches. For more on Da Conch Shack, and why it is one of our favorite beach bars, read on… For more on…

When I first started writing the series on my favorite beach bars, Smokey’s at the Cove, Cove Bay, Anguilla, was at the top of my list. I have waited to write this, only because I feared not being able to do it justice. Smokey’s was the bar that made me fall in love with the Caribbean. There was something about walking along the beach to find yourself at a bar with amazing views, great food and drink, friendly people, and what sealed the deal – live music – and not just live music, but a Caribbean version of favorite Christmas songs. It was our on first trip to Anguilla in…

One great thing about staying at the Four Seasons on Nevis is that there are great beach bars located a short walk from the resort. We arrived on Nevis just as the sun was setting, and after changing clothes, we headed out in search of something to eat. We had started the day with a 3:00 a.m. wakeup call and a 5:40 a.m. flight out of Chicago. By the time we hit Nevis, we were ready for dinner and an early bedtime. We started walking south (counterclockwise if you look at Nevis as a clock face), and ran into a string of bars. However, it was dark by then, and…

I had heard about Gwen’s Reggae Grill before our first trip to Anguilla in 2007, but we didn’t actually make it there until 2009. Gwen’s is located somewhat apart from the hustle and bustle of bars and restaurants that you immediately see when you arrive at Shoal Bay East, a gorgeous stretch of sand and water on Anguilla’s north coast. To get to Gwen’s, you walk east along the beach… …and then start watching for signs, which will confirm you’re headed in the right direction. Soon you will see an oasis of great food and drink, Gwen’s Reggae Grill. This was Gwen’s in 2009. Sadly, Gwen’s had a fire on…
