/Turks_and _Caicos

Once a part of The Bahamas, the Turks and Caicos Islands are a British Colony with superb diving, sports and Club Med offerings. The capital is Cockburn (pronounced Co'burn) Town and the population is around 14,000. These low-lying mostly undeveloped island and cays have some of the finest beaches in the world. Dolphins leap offshore. Whales playing in the open sea are as popular an attraction as in the Hawaiian Islands.

The eight principal islands boast a living coral reef system that provides perfect diving conditions. Tropical treats include fresh sapodillas and sugar apples. Seafood specialties include grilled lobster, conch prepared in a variety of ways, soft-shelled crab and an international approach to create some of the best dining in the tropics. Entertainment via traditional island music is certain to be one of your most cherished memories of a holiday in the Turks and Caicos sunshine.
