The schedule
The week, course by course
Much of the week has no set menu; the chefs cook with what the island offers that day. Reserve the full event package, or choose individual events to suit your schedule.
Arrival at leisure. Fly in on Wednesday’s nonstop from Miami and settle into the rhythm of South Caicos.
Caribbean BBQ Welcome Reception
$99++The week opens on the pier with live fire and small bites: jerk chicken, local seafood and seasonal island vegetables straight off the grills, with rum punch and island spice. A gathering around the flame rather than a formal reception.
Breakfast at leisure in Regatta Restaurant.
Island Cook-Out
$299++A day on a secluded cay. No set menu: the chefs cook what the island gives them that morning, with open-fire conch grilling at the center and shared boards passed through the afternoon. Ceviche, fish off the grill, oysters over the fire, tropical fruit. Wear a bathing suit; guests are welcome to swim throughout the afternoon.
Breakfast at leisure in Regatta Restaurant.
Cooking with the Chefs
$125++The best moments in a kitchen happen around the cutting board: tasting a sauce, deciding what a dish wants to be. Chef Kayla invites a small group into that part of the process.
Salt Ponds Walk & Dinner at the Spa Pool
$199++A walk through the island’s salt ponds with the conservation team, learning how salt shaped both the landscape and the culture of South Caicos. Dinner follows at dusk around the spa pool: an elevated take on the seafood boil, built around the day’s local catch.
Where the week unfolds
Salterra, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa

Salterra hosts the week, from the pier where it opens to the spa pool where the last dinner is served. Between gatherings, the resort is yours: slow breakfasts at Regatta, time at the spa, and the calm of an island that still moves at its own pace.
