We (gf and I, no pics) booked the Blue Haven resort for 4 nights in October to celebrate the big 4-0. Never been to the T&Cs before. What should we see and do there, other than get shite-canned and sit on the beach?

We got a boat with a captain and snorkeled/did some site seeing from the water. I’d definitely recommend that, always a great time on the water, get to see things from a different view.

For four days I’d stick to providenciales. If you were there longer I’d suggest the ferry to North Caicos then a car rental and drive to Middle Caicos, Enjoy. It’s a great island.

You're going to T&C to get fired?

I’ve never heard that term connotatively with regard to (what I assume you intended) being drunk or stoned?

Good luck, T&C is expensive enough to scare off most of the riff-raff.

I felt very safe there too.

That's about all there is to do frankly. Beautiful beaches though. Best beaches. Grace Bay is spectacular.

More best beaches!

Taylor Bay Beach was our favorite but you'd have to drive.

People say you can snorkel here and there off the shore there, but I found it to be kind of 'meh. Now, I've been a diver for many years so that's my perspective compared to other places. I will say our best day by far was when we went on the Island Vibes tour. To truly see the best reefs you have to get out there on a boat. It was great. Got to have lunch on the Iguana Island. That was cool.

Want a cool dining experience? Go to Bugaloos.You'll have to rent a car or hire one (We rented one for the week, and it was well worth it. They drive on the left, but you get used to it). The area driving in might look a little sketchy, but it's really not unsafe. We went or lunch.

You'll have a great time all in all. Just bring your wallet.

We did that Island Vibes tour as well, was a highlight for sure. Forgot the name until Nole mentioned.

The beaches are beautiful. So other than that. We took a day trip on a sail boat that included snorkeling, lunch, drinks. Definitely recommend that. Lots of great restaurants, make sure to get out of your resort and explore the island. We took cabs everywhere, never felt unsafe.
