Abstract

The Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI) are part of the British Overseas Territories in the Caribbean, situated some 575 miles southeast of Miami. The TCI are part of the Bahamas chain and cover some 193 square miles (430 square km). To reach the 40 TCI atolls (or cays), you take a short 75-minute flight from Miami. Six of the TCI islands are permanently inhabited: Grand Turk, Salt Cay, South Caicos, Middle Caicos, North Caicos, and Providenciales. Grand Turk has the highest elevation at 163 feet and is home to the territorial capital, Cockburn Town. Providenciales, often called “Provo,” is the business and tourist center and remains the most populous island. The major languages are English and Creole.
