About Turks And Caicos Islands

Formed by the merger of two island groups, Turks and Caicos, this country remains a colony under the British Queen. Despite this symbolic representation, Turks and Caicos Islands have their own government and legislature.
Located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, the majority of the population in this island nation relies on the tourism sector for their livelihoods. The country has strong trade relations with America and the UK, and English is the official language.
Having received migrants from Mexico, Jamaica, and Haiti for many years, the population is mainly composed of Mulattos, English, and North Americans. Situated southeast of the Bahamas, the Turks and Caicos Islands share borders with Cuba to the west, America to the northeast, and Haiti and the Dominican Republic to the south.
The country experiences a sunny tropical marine climate, a rare climate globally, leading to consistently high temperatures throughout the year. The almost unchanging temperatures between night and day, coupled with occasional oppressive humidity, characterize the weather. Rare monsoon rains occasionally affect the country's inland areas.
Cockburn Town, located in the Turks Islands and serving as the capital, resembles a corner of paradise with its green nature and unique architecture. The renowned Grace Bay Beach in Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands, attracts tourists and locals alike daily.
In Salt Cay, natural habitats hosting bird species unparalleled anywhere else in the world draw a significant number of visitors. For sea enthusiasts, boat tours, fishing trips, and scuba diving activities are organized.
The Kite Festival, held on official holidays, particularly Mondays, in the Turks and Caicos Islands, is celebrated as a day when families come together, and the whole nation embraces it. Families compete with kites they prepare together, and awards are given for the most creative, longest-flying, and largest kites in this never-declining event.
The Salt Cay Festival, celebrated in April as a day to express allegiance to Queen Elizabeth, involves the entire community. Lasting for three days, the festival includes parades with famous music groups and sports competitions. In the Conch Festival held at the end of November, divers from different parts of the world dive into the ocean, and the size of the fish they catch determines their rankings and rewards.
Known for dishes made from seafood, especially shellfish, Turks and Caicos Islands offer delicacies such as Conch Fritters and Conch Salad for those seeking unique flavors.
