Hello Islandman,

Welcome to the forum and enjoy. We are leaving for your islands tomorrow for a week (Royal West Indies). Always wanted to go and we finally booked. Please tell me what side you drive in the Provinciales (I saw both right and left hand drive cars on pictures)? I usually rent a car but I'm a bit concerned. Will-It be a terrifying experience for me and other drivers, LLOLL? Or a scooter is maybe better...We love the sun and water (turquoise yes) but we like to go on photo treks and carry our gear everywhere. If you like, tell me the color of your car, in case I see it. That will be fun.

ciao
Francois

I believe that they drive on the right (correct) side which is of course the left.

Thanks, check the info. We had great trip and the Royal looks great. We left home at 3:30 am and arrived at 3:30 pm with a stop in Charlotte. Our room is on the beach. I saw a jag on the way to the hotel but it was brown.

We are back, Grace Bay the 7 mile beach, the deep blue sea. It was a feast to the eyes. I shot many pictures. We went for a day with Big Blue and had diner at Da Conch Shack. Sadly we missed the horse ride. A very quiet stay in paradise. Saw many X one S and no Xk8. I borrowed a bicycle lloll but driving was also very easy, the people très sympatiques! I was told a canadian firm is running the airport or ATC, not sure.

Its good to know you have enjoyed your time here in these beautiful islands, however i was away on another island called North Caicos during your visit. A few X types are here but mostly you will find S Types here.
Once again good to know you had a good time and Happy New Year wishing you and your Cat and all the best for for years to come.

Greetings From Turks and Caicos Islands
