TURKS AND CAICOS VACATION RENTALS ON GRACE BAY

BEAUTIFUL BY NATURE is the national slogan of the Turks and Caicos Islands which is rumored to have been discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1492 and now some 500 years later is being ´rediscovered´ as one of the fasted growing travel destinations in the Caribbean.

The Turks and Caicos Islands consist of 40 islands and cays, eight of which are inhabited. The islands are located 550 miles southeast of Miami, Florida, just below the Bahamas chain and just to the east of Cuba and the island of Hispaniola (Dominican Republic and Haiti.) Technically, the Turks and Caicos are located in the Atlantic Ocean, not the Caribbean Sea. Famous for her secluded beaches, crystal clear turquoise blue waters, un spoilt reefs and dramatic walls this archipelago has some of the best diving and snorkeling in the world.

The Turks and Caicos Islands are made up of two small island groups at the southeastern end of The Bahamas. The Turks group includes Grand Turk, Salt Cay, and lesser cays. The Caicos group includes South Caicos, East Caicos, Middle (or Grand) Caicos, North Caicos, Providenciales, West Caicos, and several smaller cays.

There are more than 30 cays and islands, of which six are inhabited. Geographically, the islands are a southeastern continuation of the Bahamas. The capital is at Cockburn Town on Grand Turk.
