Best way to visit provo? From grand tuk

[SASSYMI2]

I HAVE READ MUCH ABOUT THE BEAUTIFUL ISLAND OF PROVO (DON'T KNOW FULL NAME) IN THE TURKS AND CAICOS.

CRUISING TO GRAND TURK IN FEB. WILL BE THERE FOR THE DAY. NEVER BEEN BEFORE.

IS THERE ANY EASY WAY TO GET TO PROVO?

HOW LONG OF A TRIP BY BOAT?:cool:

Provo is the nickname for the island of Providenciales (airport code: PLS). Provo is approximately 75-80 miles from Grand Turk and there are two domestic airlines which have multiple flights daily between Grand Turk and Provo. The flight between the two islands takes about 25-30 minutes. That said, given the typically short port times of cruise ships in Grand Turk, you probably wouldn't want to risk a flight delay causing you to miss your ship's departure.

I think the fare is around $90 each way (but that may be RT). If you get lucky and catch a 9:30 AM flight to Provo, you'd probably need to get a return flight leaving around 1:30 to get back to the ship, with a 2:30 or so flight left as a back up, assuming your ship leaves at 4 or 5PM. Not a lot of time in Provo relative to the $$ spend.
