Along with the fine dining, exceptional pampering and first-rate accommodations, visitors will also enjoy the shopping experience in Turks and Caicos. Most of the larger hotels have boutiques and duty-free shops within their grounds, and many, especially along Grace Bay on Provo, are adjacent to malls that offer a variety of choices.

In TCI we have no luxury tax, no sales tax, so the temptation to shop until you drop is even stronger than usual! Designer names such as Dior, Rolex, Cartier, Armani, Chanel and the like can be found at a wide selection of retailers selling jewelery, perfumes and colognes, watches, cameras, leather goods, art and crafts throughout the country.

Along with these high-end items, the usual fare of souvenir postcards, T-shirts, hats and other fun keepsakes can be found on Provo at the following malls and shopping centres: Caicos Café Plaza / Ocean Club Plaza, Central Square, Graceway Plaza and Graceway House, Downtown, Ports of Call / La Petite Place, Neptune Plaza, The Regent Village and Salt Mills Plaza.

The main supermarket is the Graceway IGA on the main strip of Leeward Highway. This is a very impressive, large grocery with well-stocked shelves, a great range of fresh fruits and vegetables, an onsite bakery and a large selection of prepared meals ranging from pizza to rotisserie chicken to a variety of deli choices and salads. All familiar brands are available to choose from in the wide aisles, but you will observe that due to import duties, the prices will be noticeably steeper than what you may be accustomed to at home.

The Graceway Gourmet is conveniently located in the heart of Grace Bay at the end of Dolphin Avenue. Within a comfortable walk from the various resorts in the area, you can easily drop in for a shopping or enjoy a coffee or lunch on their terrace.

Smaller grocery stores include Island Pride Supermarket, Quality Supermarket and Price Club, all locally owned, all located along Leeward Highway on Provo, closer to downtown.
