About
Turks and Caicos
Island-hopping is a highly inviting prospect when you holiday in Turks and Caicos, Turks and Caicos, a British Overseas Territory. Grand Turk, Salt Cay and a few other tiny scattered neighbours make up the Turks Islands. Grand Turk is delightfully un-modernised with narrow winding alleyways and picturesquely crumbling buildings. The Caicos string comprises West Caicos, Providenciales, North Caicos, Middle Caicos, East Caicos, and South Caicos, plus yet more mini-gems of islands, a good number of which are entirely deserted. Tracking down a good Turks and Caicos Hotel offer might sound therefore like a considerable challenge, but the islands have in fact retained a huge amount of their untouched allure while developing a holidaymaking culture and economy which is slowly building up. As a consequence, there really is no time like the present for looking for a cheap Turks and Caicos Holidays deal. Each island differs, and many visitors will spend their stay straying no further than Providenciales where the Turks and Caicos International airport is found and where holiday facilities are most concentrated. This is by far the most developed of the islands, with its up-market shopping malls complementing the pearly white natural beaches, particularly those of sweeping Grace Bay, where understandably, a majority of the entire Turks and Caicos Hotels are located. With its 18-hole golf course, conch farm (a world first) and historically its biggest draw of all, the first class diving around mind-boggling coral reefs with the prospect of encountering Humpback whales, Provos, as it is known, still has much untouched nature, which visitors can get close to at the Chalk Sound National Park. Twelve miles to the east lies North Caicos, famed for its vast number of pink flamingo. North Caicos is the greenest and most verdant of the Turks and Caicos Holiday destinations. Close to it, the three Mary Cays are the spot for observing Ospreys among many other birds. Visitors who hop over to East Bays Cays may be rewarded by a sighting of the iguanas, the main inhabitants. Home to historic Cockburn Town, Grand Turk is the six-mile long island from which the Turks and Caicos have long been governed. Here, curiously, colonial architecture sits alongside the local clapboard brightly-coloured, Caribbean homes of the island. A holiday in Turks and Caicos is incomplete without a visit to Salt Cay with is tiny population of just 100 souls. Home to the area’s salt industry, whale-watching, snorkelling alongside majestic turtles, and multi-coloured sunsets are just some of the attractions of this island, lying a short way off Grand Turk.
There is no limitation governing the types of visitors for whom a Turks and Caicos Holiday is a great choice. Those who love history or nature, diving or beach fun are all catered for. You can choose a Package Holiday to Turks and Caicos or maybe a more tailored approach to your holiday. Families are more than welcome (nay, encouraged) to holiday on Turks and Caicos by staying at the 5* Beaches resort, and children will delight in the superbly well-equipped on-site aquatic park.

Slumbering under dreamy blue skies, the group of islands benefits from temperatures that average between 85 and 90 degrees, just right for taking it easy, with September generally the hottest month.
