, let's get that straight from the start. They are inauspicious dots in the Atlantic Ocean. So what do they have to offer us divers? I think you'll find that the answer is - quite a lot.
The Caicos islands lie on the shallow Caicos bank which means that, although they have wonderful beaches and clear turquoise water, deeper water for diving is a lengthy boat ride away. Grand Turk, and its little sister Salt Cay, lie to the east and are separated from the Caicos Bank by the deep blue of the Columbus Passage. Spectacular wall-diving can be had within a short swim from the shore.
Grand Turk originally became the natural capital for this tiny nation because of its deepwater harbour but modern air travel has changed all that. The island of Providenciales, or Provo as locals like to call it, one of the islands furthest west in the TCI, has an international airport which has enabled it to attempt to develop a booming tourism business.

Geography Turks and Caicos is an archipelago of 40 islands and cays which is located south of the Bahamas and half way between Miami and Puerto Rico. The beaches of the islands are amazing. There are 230 miles of beaches though the 40 islands with coral reef and azure waters. On the island of Provo Grace Bay has 12 miles of wonderful sandy beach. Many spots offer windsurfing and sailing as well as snorkeling and diving. Glass bottom boats are rare. Grand Turk Cockburn Town is the capital of the islands as well as the financial center. The oldest church here is the S t. Thomas' Anglican Church which was built by settlers from Bermuda. Not far away is the St. Mary's Anglican Church which has a more scenic position overlooking the water. The Odd Fellows Lodge is across the street from the old salt pier and, being the oldest building on the island, is probably where the abolition of slavery was proclaimed. There is an interesting exhibition found in the Turks and Caicos National Museum which has an early 16th century Spanish ship removed locally from only 25 feet of water.

    Turks and Caicos Tours Overview
    Aside from the beaches, a view from the air reveals little that's inviting about the mostly dry, scrubby, sparsely populated islands that make up the Turks and Caicos. Their real appeal lies below the water - exceptional diving, snorkeling and fishing are provided by one of the world's largest networks of coral reefs. Resting serenely at the tail end of the Bahamas, the Turks and Caicos are beyond being "discovered," yet still remain off the radar for the average island vacationer. Those who do visit typically head for Providenciales (known locally as Provo), the most developed island in this chain. Provo has several luxury hotels and many good restaurants, but few cruise ships stop there and no one could mistake it for Aruba. The principal activity seems to be hanging out in the watering holes along the beach. The rest of the inhabited islands have a real outpost feel to them - some don't even have cars. The biggest event of the year is the winter arrival of migrating humpback whales.
