Out past the coral reefs surrounding the Turks & Caicos Islands, the Atlantic Ocean offers great deep-water fishing: blue marlin, sailfish, wahoo, tuna, mahi-mahi, and sharks. Or try light tackle trolling for mackerel, jack, and barracuda. You can also try the flats for bonefish and tarpon, or spin cast for bonefish. Some may prefer bottom fishing for snapper and grouper.

These beautiful creatures can be observed in the evening, during the mating of marine worms, in the current ebbing under the shallow water of the Caicos Banks.

This island is actually called Little Water Cay and is home to hundreds of iguanas. It has been turned into a national park and costs just a couple dollars to walk across the boardwalks to see the iguanas. I have been before and seen tons of iguanas, some several feet in length. Other times I have been disappointed by how few I saw. Can be hit and miss but fun for the kids. Iguana Island often tacked on to other excursions since it is just off the marina. If can be arranged through JB, Dive Provo or some of the other operators. (close)

This is an island in the T&C. Its the only place on earth you can see the endangered rock iguana in its natural habitat.

Although you might be tempted to ride on of the MANY wild horse on the island, don't. The local ones are quite wild. The local tables have bought in horse from Jamaica for the tourists to ride. Much better option. As you enter the stables you will see a coral on the right with a collection of local donkeys and horses. The local kids get a fee for bringing them in but many believe they also are the one who let them escape for future catch. Kind of like catch and release. Local horses and donkeys used to have value on the island as transportation and farming. Bu the plantations are gone and the "buggies" have arrived so they do not do much except roam the island and multiply. (close)

Beautiful beach on the West wide of the island. You will need a 4x4 and about 45 minutes to get here. It is one of the nicest beaches on the island, and not many people because of the difficult in getting here. There are some old Tiki Hut ruins that are left from a French reality show filmed here many years ago. As the sun starts to drop watch out for the sand flees (no see'ums). (close)

Miniature Golf Club for kids and adults. On Friday night they have Karaoke night. Let the kids play golf while you sing your heart out (or laugh at those trying). Quite entertaining.

The first few days of your vacation, I would recommend booking the hot stone massage with Spa Tropique. It melted any tension I had and along with the massage, made me feel amazing. A great way to start your trip.

This is the base that John Glen came to when he landed from orbiting the moon in 1962. The US pulled out in 1983 and the local government took over the buildings.
