Nature
As well as almost endless idyllic white sand beaches, the islands are home to some stunning wildlife. Whilst driving from the ferry on North Caicos to Bambarra you can choose to stop at the Flamingo Pond where the beautiful birds often can be seen feeding in the shallow mangroves, often in very large flocks. Numerous bird species can also be seen whilst you enjoy the views of the beach in front of the house. Ospreys regularly fly by and the local Pelicans put on a spectacular diving show, plunging into the shallows for fish just feet from the shoreline.
We have created a short bush walk in our garden and the orchids, palms and flowering shrubs are home to many butterflies, birds and iguanas and lizards. Enjoy and please take care of the sun when you are walking at any time of day- getting sunburn is easy to overlook in the Trade Winds.
Diving
The Turks and Caicos Islands are well regarded as one of the best places in the world to dive being surrounded by one of the longest barrier reef systems in the world. This offers an array of types of dive sites and location showcasing a stunning array of marine life and pristine reefs in often exceptionally clear water. As avid divers ourselves we will be more than happy to offer information and advice on the options that are available to you if you wish to make the most of the underwater world surrounding the islands during your stay.
Fishing
The islands are a fishing haven, the Turks and Caicos Islands offer amazing fishing grounds in a range of habitats that see fishermen coming to the islands in the hopes of catching a monster. Whether you like fishing over the reef for snappers and jacks, further out in the deep blue for tuna, Wahoo and Mahi Mahi or in the calm, secluded shallow and flat water mangroves spot tracking the sporty Bonefish, Middle Caicos has something to keep even the most experienced, well-travelled fishermen hooked.
