Down island from the Bahama Out Islands is the separate nation of The Turks and Caicos. Like the Bahamas, it has long been a part of the British Commonwealth, but unlike the Bahamas, it remains so. Overall, it is a prosperous nation undergoing a huge growth in the economy, tourism, and vacation homes for international residents.

The main center of population and business is Providenciales, known as “Provo.” The climate is generally warmer in winter than in the Bahamas, and temperate at other times of the year.

The land is low, without much vegetation. Its beauty lies in the vast shallow banks, long perfect beaches with picturesque outlying cays, the undersea world of its shallow reefs as well as its steep coral walls, and its picture-postcard sparkling turquoise waters.

In a bold step to preserve the national treasure of the environment, the government has preserved numerous National Marine Parks as well as land reserves, historical sites, and sanctuaries. Anchoring is permitted only in designated areas and limited in others.

No fish or conch may be taken. The primary area for yachts in the Turks and Caicos is Provo, with an excellent anchorage at Sapodilla Bay on the south and dockage at the Turtle Cove Marina on the north. The Provo International Airport provides easy access.

Besides the attractions of perfect anchorages, spectacular snorkeling, scuba diving, beachcombing and swimming, and all the yacht’s water toys, your vacation charter might also include whale watching at the nearby Mouchoir or Silver Banks. 

Here huge pods of humpback whales with calves frolic during their spring migration north. You will need the right yacht for this with a captain who knows when and where the humpbacks arrive at the Mouchoir and Silver Banks.

Akasia Yachting will find you the perfect charter yacht to fulfill your dreams of the ideal vacation in the Islands of the Turks and Caicos, during year-round perfect weather.
