Turks and Caicos is a British overseas territory consisting of two groups of stunning tropical islands in the West Indies. There are a total of 40 different islands in Turks and Caicos and discovering as many of them as you can will definitely be worth your while. Holidays in Turks and Caicos are not as well known as other Caribbean destinations, which means that the area has resisted mass tourism. Paradise is an understatement for this cherished destination. White powdery sands, beautiful crystal clear waters and swaying palm trees in the distance are what you can expect from Turks and Caicos holidays, and it is beginning to be compared to the likes of the Maldives. For those of you who prefer somewhere slightly remote and beautifully serene, head to the Turks Islands as the population is a mere 6,000 compared to the 25,000 currently populating the Caicos Islands.
