The Turks and Caicos Islands are a British Overseas Territory comprising a small archipelago of eight major islands and numerous uninhabited keys 600 miles southeast of Miami. Most tourist facilities are located on Providenciales ("Provo") Island. The U.S. dollar is the unit of currency and the larger hotels and shops accept credit cards. The U.S. Embassy in Nassau, Bahamas has jurisdiction for consular matters in the Turks and Caicos.
Hi, do you have any idea how & how much to rent a cabana or a covered beach chair at the Grand Turk cruise center? It sounds like a perfect thing to do after my island bus tour.

I got some information from Carnival's site....

We just got back from Grand Turk about a month ago. We rented a cabana. It was located at the pool at the port. The beach was in close proximity. We had our own cabana boy who delivered us food and drink (at our cost). Margaritaville was right there, and the mango margaritas were excellent. The cabana had 2 lie down chairs on the porch in the shade, which you could move if you wanted to sunbathe. Inside, it had a table for four, places to hang your towells, ect. It was very beautifully decorated inside. It was nice to have the ocean and a chlorine pool just steps away. It also had a fresh water shower to rinse off in, just outside your porch. The people who had not rented a cabana were very jealous and wanted to know how to get one. You probably need to book early. There are only 8 cabanas for rent. The price was $100 for 4 people for the entire day. Well worth it!
