Vacationing with kids at the beach is always a great choice! Parents can relax in the sun and supervise at the same time while the kids spend hours playing in the sand and water, what’s not to love? Except maybe crowded beaches, less than friendly crashing waves that can make any parent nervous and picnic food dusted in sand. But have you ever considered the islands of Turks and Ciacos? While just a hop, skip and a jump from the Bahamas, it is one of the most underrated travel destinations for families. Turks and Caicos has some of the most beautiful beaches on Earth with miles of powder-white sand and amazing crystal clear waters; without all the crowds. Come and experience our family-friendly resort accommodations at Ocean Club resorts located on the world-renowned Grace Bay Beach and use our 4 easy tips for a successful beach trip with kids in Turks and Caicos.
#1 - Enjoy Calmer Waters in Turks and Caicos
Turks and Caicos beaches are the perfect place for families to enjoy a day by the water than most other destination beaches. The reefs that surround the island help to protect the beaches from strong ocean surges, making the water calm and safe for everyone to enjoy. Both parents and kids alike can relax and explore the beach without any worries. And when everyone is ready for a break, there are plenty of beach umbrellas and shady spots to relax.
#2 - Easy and Delicious Beach Snacks
After just a few hours of playing in the sun and sand, everyone will be searching for snacks to replenish their energy. But don’t worry, we have you covered! No need to pack a days’ worth of food to eat at the beach. With plenty of food and drink options, you can enjoy a day in the sun without having to worry about packing snacks. Just order from Solana Beach Bar or Cabana Bar and Grill and have your food and drinks delivered directly to your beach chairs. That way, you can spend more time playing in the water or building sandcastles and less time waiting in line at the concession stand.
#3 - Experience Fun Beach Activities
Make the beach an extra fun day with new beach activities! We have all the gear you need for a fun day in the water. We have a variety of beach adventures to choose from, so you can find the perfect activity for you and your family. And for younger family members, there’s no need to travel with beach toys from home—kids will love our complimentary beach toys. For the adults, choose from kitesurfing, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding. Whether you choose to spend the day reading a book or trying out a new water sport, there's something for everyone at the beach!
