Gamble Responsibly at Small-Scale Casinos
While the casinos in Turks and Caicos aren’t as large as those in other destinations like Las Vegas, for example, there are still smaller-scale casinos such as CasaBlanca Casino, one of which is the most popular nightlife destination in Grace Bay, Providenciales. They stay open until 4 a.m. and have 800 of the most popular slot machines, table games, and a CasaBlanca Race and Sportsbook where you can cheer for your favourite teams and make bets.

Make sure to check their website regarding dates for the Casa After Dark pool party!
There is also a casino at The Ritz-Carlton in Grace Bay, Providenciales which features 14 traditional table games and over 70 slot machines and live entertainment. The Ritz-Carlton is a luxury resort where you can also stay and enjoy an on-site spa, cafe, and other amazing amenities.
Enjoy Drinks With a View
Turks and Caicos has many indoor and outdoor bars to choose from. Whether you’re looking for a fine dining experience in a luxurious environment or to enjoy the island’s natural beauty at a beachside bar, various bars allow you to cross both of these experiences off your bucket list. Beachside bars are open late so you can watch the moon dip low over the ocean while enjoying a refreshing tropical cocktail and tasty authentic Caribbean cuisine with the sound of waves gently crashing in the background.
Sail off Into the Sunset or Indulge in a Sunset Cruise
Sailing at sunset in Turks and Caicos is a truly magical experience that you won’t want to miss. The warm golden hues of the setting sun as the gentle sea breeze fills the sails and touches your skin offer a sense of peace and connection to nature that is truly unforgettable. Whether you’re enjoying a romantic evening with a loved one or simply want to take in the beauty of the surroundings, sailing at sunset in Turks and Caicos is a memory that will stay with you long after the journey is over. Or, if sailing isn’t exactly your thing, you can book a sunset cruise, one of which takes you to an uninhabited island called Little Water Cay, also referred to as Iguana Island. Even as the sun sets, you’ll be able to catch glimpses of these fascinating lizards lounging on the sands or vegetation and, hopefully, dolphins, whales or other marine life! If you’re chartering on New Year’s Eve or the Fourth of July, you’ll be able to watch a fireworks show on Grace Bay. Most sunset charters will include complimentary snacks and drinks, however, it’s best to do your research as there are various charters and tour companies to choose from.
Sing & Dance to Live Music
There are many outdoor venues and scheduled events at restaurants and bars or town squares around Turks and Caicos that bring together locals and tourists alike to enjoy a live show from musicians of all genres - reggae, calypso, soca, jazz and more. From sunset concerts on the beach and lively, vibrant street festivals to an intimate acoustic performance in a cozy cafe and local bands entertaining guests at a resort, attending a live music event in Turks and Caicos is a must-do experience for any music lovers visiting the islands.
Turks & Caicos Has Something to Offer for Every Taste & Mood
The nightlife in Turks and Caicos is vibrant and lively, offering visitors a wide range of entertainment options even after the sun goes down. From beachfront bars and restaurants that stay open late to bustling casinos and DJs performing at various venues, dancing the night away or spending a quiet evening under the stars can easily be crossed off your bucket list. Plus, the local culture and warm hospitality of the residents only add to the overall excitement and enjoyment of the nightlife scene in this stunning destination. When you stay at Kokomo Botanical Resort, you’re just steps from your private cottage to the WE Market Cafe, where you can enjoy a culinary experience and tropical drinks for a night out.
