The Best Little Beach Bar in Turks and Caicos

By: - November 16th, 2016

All the ingredients are here: one of the world’s greatest beaches, Grace Bay; one of the Caribbean’s top resorts, The Palms; spectacular rum cocktails.

There’s just something innately lovely about this tiny wooden beach shack at The Palms, with a perimeter of stools around a square bar, directly on the white sands of Grace Bay.

Better still, this place remains a bit of a secret; while it’s in the heart of this luxury resort, it’s open to the public (as is the rest of the resort), making it an in-the-know beach bar destination in the heart of Providenciales.

And then there’s bartender Carlton, who will whirl up whatever cocktail you’re seeking and then wow you with his bottle-balancing abilities.

See what we mean in the video.
