Long Bay Beach stretches along the southeastern coast of Providenciales and offers an experience completely different from Grace Bay. Known for its shallow turquoise water and steady trade winds, the water here remains waist-deep for hundreds of feet offshore, creating ideal conditions for kiteboarding, paddleboarding, and other water sports. Despite its growing popularity, the beach still feels spacious and unhurried — and the west-facing shoreline delivers sunsets that Grace Bay simply cannot match.
Why Go — For kiteboarding, shallow warm water, spacious shoreline, and some of the most spectacular sunsets on the island.
Best For — Water sports enthusiasts · Kiteboarders · Paddleboarders · Families with older children · Sunset seekers
Insider Tip — Early mornings often offer the calmest water conditions and beautiful sunrise views — and if a spectacular sunset is the goal, Long Bay’s west-facing position makes it one of the best spots on the island to watch the light go down.
