Turks and Caicos Islands Info:
Our cottage is on Providenciales in the Turks and Caicos Islands ....... a British dependent territory with great rates for holiday travel from the UK and Europe. Spend your holidays at the Caribbean sea this year!
WEATHER is perfect in summer and blissfully warm in winter where the Caribbean's refreshing trade winds keep the setting extremely comfortable. The Turks and Caicos, being relatively flat islands and located at the northern end of the Caribbean, do not have a rainy season in summer. The average temperature ranges between 75 and 85°F. From June to October, the temperature can reach into the 90's, especially in the late summer months. A constant trade wind keeps the climate at a very comfortable level.

We drive on the left so it makes it easy for our UK and European guests.

SCUBA DIVING:
Choose the Turks and Caicos Islands for your next scuba diving vacation.
A recent guest comments: ' The diving in the Turks ands Caicos is terrific and the two minute walk from your cottage to the Marina for 8:30 a.m. dives is definitely the way to go!'
Dive operators all leave daily from Harbour Club's Marina to Providenciales' most spectacular diving - uninhabited West Caicos and French Cay, located on the edge of the Caicos banks where the wall drops to deep blue depths of 7000 feet. Tropical reefs, walls of coral formations dropping off into the deep blue and abundant sea life will greet you when diving in the Turks and Caicos. Scuba divers love this Caribbean underwater paradise.
The clarity of the water is unbelievable with visibility of over 100 feet!
Let us put together a tailor made dive package for you!
Let us know how many divers and dive days you would like and we'll do all the rest.
Just an easy, short walk and onto the dive boats moored in our Marina.
BEACHES........soft white sand and turquoise water:
Providenciales BEACHES provide wondrous, lazy days of sunshine, sand and sea.
The Turks and Caicos Island beaches are some of the world's best: long stretches of pure white sand lapped by shimmering turquoise water, a breathtaking sight for all to behold. Best of all is that you can find beaches to walk and explore entirely alone, no crowds, just the occasional pelican swooping down and skimming the water in search of fish.
GRACE BAY BEACH has been rated one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and and at the White House Beach, you will find a perfect area for swimming and snorkelling the reef which is conveniently close to the shore line.
There are many other Providenciales beaches and small tucked away coves. Some are more secluded than others, some are more popular with a selection of activities to enjoy, but be assured that we will direct you to find that special one to make into your own favourite.
