Turks and Caicos Islands

Providenciales

The most developed island for tourism, Providenciales has a variety of world-class accommodations just waiting to be discovered. Scuba diving, golf, deep sea and bone fishing, sailing and many dining experiences await. Walk miles of powder soft white sand beaches, enjoy a multitude of hues of clear blue sea and sky.

Middle Caicos
Most Picturesque
With rocky bluffs along the coastline, Middle Caicos landscape is perhaps the most dramatic of all the Caicos Islands. Once a Lucayan indian shelter - a large system of caverns can be explored. Mudjin Harbour offers world-class snorkelling.

North Caicos
Just a short boat trip away North Caicos offers some excellent photo opportunities. Hundreds of West Indian Flamingos reside at Flamingo Pond. Wades Green Plantation is a step back in time to the Loyalist era. Real estate development projects are beginning on North.

Pine Cay
A private island is home to a small cadre of homeowners and seasonal residents. The prestigious Meridian Club offers visitors a totally relaxing get-away vacation. No phone, no TV, no automobile, just peace. Nine miles of nature trails, miles of pristine beach with excellent snorkeling are on the list of activities.

Parrot Cay
Local legend purports that female pirate Anne Bonny camped out here in the 1720s, lending the original name - Pirate Cay. This 1000 acre island now hosts the ultra luxurious and very private vacation hideaway Parrot Cay Resort and Spa.

South Caicos
Historically a Salt Island, but geographically one of the Caicos Islands. Cockburn Harbour now lives off the fishing industry, exporting conch and lobster to the United States and France.

Ambergris Cay
Uninhabited for nearly five centuries, it is miles from the nearest inhabited island. Approximately 100 estate sites, from one to ten acres are offered. An environmentally sensitive and sustainable development plan is being strictly adhered to.

Unihabited Caicos Islands and Cays
The uninhabited Cays - pronounced Keys - can be reached only by boat. Cay trips can be arranged for picnics, swimming, snorkelling and deserted isle adventures.

Grand Turk
Many believe that Grand Turk was Columbus' first landfall in the New World, fitting his journal description of a low-lying "bean-shaped" island with ponds in the middle. The Old-World charm of Grand Turk is evident on touring the island. A stroll down historic Duke Street and Front Street unveils an eclectic collection of inns, boutiques, dive shops and colourful houses lining the seaside. Cruise ships are now making Grand Turk part of their itinerary.

Salt Cay
The buildings, salinas and artifacts essential to the solar salt production that ended in the 1960s still survive. In the mid-1800s a whaling company existed on revenue from oil and ambergris. Now, hundreds of humpback whales pass by within easy sighting distance on their way to the Mouchoir Banks from January through March.
