Headed to Turks and Caicos in April and staying at the Seven Stars Resort. We are going to be there for 10 days. What are some cannot miss places and things to do while we are there? The only thing planned now is two days of diving.

TIA.

There are some cool bars and restaurants, most can be evaluated on trip advisor for what you're interested in.
Central Town has a very strip mall feel. But outside of that, it is largely undeveloped and beautiful.

The water and beaches are some of the best anywhere in the world.
Embrace the relaxation and have an awesome time!

Shark Bite is good for lunch.
Coco Bistro is great get reservations now. Bay Bistro was very good and perfect location.

Take the ferry to North Caicos and rent a car. Drive across the causeway to Middle Caicos and go to Dragon Caye. Prettiest little beach you’ll ever see and the rock formation speaks for itself.

I second coco bistro. We also did the provo ponies. Enjoyed that as well

I recommend renting some type of boat thru a company and have them driving you around booze cruising some of the nicest beaches in the world with no one around

Some of the best beaches and waters I have ever been too but I don't know what I would do for 10 days there other than R & R. If that is what you are doing than good for you

We stayed at The Shore Club on Long Bay Beach. Quite a few kiteboarding schools on that side of the island. Also, rent a jet ski and ride out to the La Famille Express shipwreck. You can climb up the cargo net and jump off. Wear sneaks though. The deck is rusty. And not far from there, a floating tiki bar that you can tie up to and have a few beers

Infiniti Restaurant and Bar is a great place to go. The setting and view are incredible

What’s the best way to get around for dinners? Just take a cab from the resort? We are going and plan to just relax at the resort mostly but I’d like to try a few restaurants too.

we stayed in taylor bay and enjoyed chilling on the beaches and snorkeling there and in sapodilla bay. was a bit of a drive to grace bay and all the "stuff" there, but didn't miss it too much. was also cool to be able to check out chalk sound, which was close by.

took the ferry to north caicos, did bugaloos for conch, drank the local turks head beer instead of "imports" and also did a drive out on a super sketchy malcolm's road in a tiny nissan. the beach and reef snorkeling out there was worth it though.

We are about 45 days out from our trip. Doing some digging it seems like the airport can be a bit of a shite show. We're flying in on a Wednesday and out on a Saturday. Has anyone used the Vip or Fast pass services? Is it worth the money?

Only been once and used one of the vip/fast pass services so I don’t know any different but I would do it again. They walk you through the entire airport process and I think you even get to skip some lines

Worth every penny to me. They take you to the front of every line. Especially good on your return thru T and C when the last thing you wanna do is stand in l long arse lines.

I would do whatever you can do on the return flight. There are usually several flights leaving at the same times and the very small airport gets very crowded and busy. I would get there 2 hours or more from your departure time for sure no matter what expeditated service you use.

After about 4-5 days in T&C, I get itchy to move on.

I guess if I loved fishing, I could spend more time there.

The water off T&C gets deep fast, so that interesting.

Good luck. The beaches are beautiful and the place feels very safe.
