The Long Bay Shipwreck – A must-see attraction
in Turks and Caicos

  Super positive wingfoil experience at Kite Provo with Mati: : patient, knowledgeable coaching, flexible with conditions – We booked wingfoil lessons with Mati at Kite Provo and couldn’t be happier. Mati is a fantastic instructor: calm, extremely patient, and genuinely skilled at breaking things down step-by-step so… read more you make progress without feeling rushed. He was also very flexible, adapting the lesson plan to the conditions and to our level, which made the whole experience feel personalized rather than “one size fits all.”

Kite Provo was also great to deal with overall. They were very responsive, super honest, and straightforward about what was realistic for us to achieve. The equipment was high-quality and well maintained, which made a big difference for confidence and safety.

If you’re considering learning wingfoiling or leveling up, I can only recommend them. Huge thanks to Mati. My brother and I are leaving with real skills and a clear plan to keep improving.

  Amazing experience, highly recommend!!!  – We did the SUP tour, it was absolutely amazing!!! We saw so many turtles, baby sharks, barracudas even, we couldn’t believe it. Our guides were so nice explaining everything to… read more us. It was an experience of a lifetime! I highly recommend to book a tour with SUP Provo!

  Not Worth the Money – Disappointing Family Experience  – We booked the mangrove kayak tour for our family of five (with three young children), and unfortunately, it was a complete disappointment and not worth the nearly $500 we spent.… read more />
While they did let our toddler ride for free (which we appreciated), the experience itself fell far below expectations. Our guide offered little to no information about the mangroves—aside from stating that they weren’t man-made, which was already obvious. There was barely any wildlife to see: just one turtle’s head from far away and one small fish that we had already seen daily on Grace Bay Beach.

Even though it was just our family and the guide, the whole tour felt rushed. We started late, ended early, and the guide seemed more interested in wrapping things up than engaging with us or the kids.

I had asked in advance if we needed to bring anything and was told the guide would have a small bag with water. That turned out to be untrue. We had left our kids’ water bottles in the car based on that response, and no water was provided—even when the kids asked for it.

Overall, it felt like a missed opportunity on every level: overpriced, uninformative, and poorly organized. Would not recommend this tour, especially for families with young children.

  The best of long bay  – Provo is the oldest kite school on the island and it truly showed why! True professionals from the front office to the instructors. Would recommend whole heartedly to anyone interested… read more in learning this amazing sport

  New to kiteboarding and learned a great deal  – My husband and I didn’t know what to expect and ended up learning a great deal about flying the kite and getting started. I’d definitely like to go again.… read more The instructors with Kite Provo were top notch.

  BEST Kitesurfing and Mangrove Tour Experience!  – This place deserves more than 5 stars! Both my kids did private lessons over Spring Break with Mati and Julie. They are both high school athletes and have a lot… read more of experience with MANY different kinds instructors and both said they were amazing instructors. The kids ended up going back for privates 2 more days (would have been 3 but there was no wind!) My husband even ended up doing a private with Antek because he was so impressed. All 3 had such a great time. Our biggest regret is not doing lessons the entire week we were in Turks and Caicos. And MY biggest regret is not joining in on the fun. The staff is super friendly. Don’t look anywhere else. These folks are the real deal. Also do the Mangrove Tour through Kite Provo. Mark, who is also a kiteboarding instructor, led this tour and it was FANTASTIC!

  Took two private lessons with Mark. Great instruction and guidance that significantly improved my kite and board skills. The spot was made for kiting with shallow water and steady… read more winds. I’ll be back!

  Kite Provo is amazing. I learned to kite with them a few years ago and keep coming back for progression lessons and for beginner lessons for family. The instructors are… read more amazing. They have students up and riding quickly and safely. Kite Provo is the best kite school on Turks and Caicos and TCI is the best place in the world to learn to kite.

  Instructor was awesome, patient, followed on jet ski, just the right combo of demonstrating and offering tips. Site is exceptional too. Office very organized and flexible.

  Best experience to see marine life and tour parts of of the mangrove not everyone gets to see. I can only hope to get better at paddle boarding but for… read more a first timer I had a blast! Saw turtles, barracuda, sharks, sea snails, needle fish, and puffer fish. Glad I had a chance to do this.

  Great experience from booking through the SUP tour, a bunch of turtles, fish and several sharks. Very informative guide.

  Our group had a mixed experience with Kite Provo. The 4 of us were split across two instructors, Alan and Nic. The two folks with Alan had a great time–they… read more thought his instruction was clear, he provided good analogies, and when the kite went in the water, he helped get the kite back up (which was challenging in the limited wind conditions we were facing). They generally had fun. The other two folks struggled significantly more. Nic’s instruction was more laissez-faire. He gave high level instructions and we spent 80% of the time with our kite in the water–he’d watch us try again and again with little success to get the kite up out of the water. We ended up ending the 3 hour lesson about an hour early to come back the next day. Overall, I would recommend that people request an experienced instructor and I’d recommend Kite Provo to have people focus on the fun parts of kite surfing before they start teaching the extra-hard parts of it–getting the kite out of the water during low wind. Folks who worked with Alan are interested in returning, the other ones are not.

  This is the second year we wen to Kite Provo and had a wonderful time improving our kiting while minimizing frustration Mark was fantastic as an instructor and Astro was… read more a wonderful Supervision jet ski Meister, who by the way is hysterical if you ask him about winging vs kiting. Both were right there if you had any problems.

By the way, since our family of 8 ranged from my 91 year old mother to 25 year old kids, we stayed at Club Med and had all our meals together. Then with a rental car four of us would drive the 7 minutes to Long Bay for kiting each day. It worked out really well.

  First Class Kite lessons! – We signed up for a full week of lessons with Kite Provo and could not have been happier. The instructors were GREAT! Of course, the water and weather are so… read more conducive to learning! Kristen and Chris are super helpful and have a true appreciation for all that the Island offers! We highly recommend Kite Provo and will be back! Don’t hesitate – just book it!

  This is the place to learn kiteboarding! – 1. Lessons were easy to book! Questions were quickly addressed and directions to the kiteboarding location were very detailed and easy to understand.
2. The location can not be… read more beat! Nice sandy beach, beautiful warm clear shallow water, small waves, lots of space, uncrowded, and most importantlywind.
3. It was the most amazing and fun experience I’ve ever had!

I showed up with a few trials under my belt, but had never gotten up. Luckily, I was paired up with Mark as my instructor. He was extremely patient and had a great sense of humor which made every lesson a positive learning experience, with the perfect balance of professionalism and fun.

Mark was eager to share his love for kiting and knows how to get you to fly (even if you lack natural grace and finesse like me). I progressed from face planting to successful waterstarts and riding across the water. He even took some pictures and videos for me so I have proof!

I just can’t recommend Mark enough! He was so easy to get along with and enjoying his company in addition to the instruction took the experience to the highest level. I can’t wait to come back!
