Turks and Caicos Islands Holidays
With miles of white soft sandy beaches, turquoise waters, vibrant coral reefs, turtles, eagle rays and flamingos, Turks and Caicos holidays certainly live up to the island's slogan - beautiful by nature.
Turks and Caicos is an archipelago of 40 coral islands lying southeast of the Bahamas in the Atlantic Ocean. Split into two main island groups, Turks Islands and the Caicos Islands, there’s so much to discover and experience on holiday here.
It’s the dazzling white sandy beaches lapped by twinkling crystal-clear waters that brings people to the Turks and Caicos Islands time and time again. To sink your toes into the sand at one of the world’s best beaches, head to Grace Bay Beach on Providenciales or ‘Provo’ Island. The vibrant turquoise waters of Chalk Sound National Park, a 5km-long lagoon dotted with small cays on the south-west of Provo, is another holiday highlight.
Wildlife enthusiasts will enjoy a trip to the North and Middle Caicos islands. Explore North Caicos’ nature reserves with its thriving plant and bird colonies, including ospreys and the flourishing wild flamingos at Flamingo Pond. The Conch Caves on Middle Caicos are covered with impressive stalactites and stalagmites, impressive underground lagoons, and are home to resident bat colonies.
Dive deep into Turks and Caicos
A holiday to Turks and Caicos is a diving fanatic’s mecca - the outstanding protected coral reef and world-famous 7,000ft ocean wall drop are a sight to behold. Stretching across 80 miles, it’s one of the largest barrier reefs in the world and it has a wealth of unique marine life to discover. Snorkellers will revel at spotting Hawksbills turtles, spotted eagle rays, and the colourful tropical fish at Smith’s Reef in Turtle Cove.
