Providenciales’ weekly Island Fish Fry, the destination’s most popular cultural experience and a guest favorite, was recently awarded with a TripAdvisor® Certificate of Excellence.

The weekly Thursday night event at Bight’s Park features local specialties such as jerk chicken, conch fritters and freshly caught seafood. Visitors and locals mingle over rum punch cocktails and guests of all ages dance to the lively rhythms of a local steel band.
