Turks and Caicos weekend -A Perfect Beach Week-End

The Turks consist of two main islands: Grand Turk and Salt Cay, which are separated from the Caicos by a 22-mile-wide deep-water channel, the Turks Island Passage. The Caicos group consists of six principal islands: West Caicos, Providenciales, North Caicos, Grand Caicos, East Caicos and South Caicos. All are flanked by small uninhabited cays. Providenciales' posh hotels, casino gambling and direct flights from Miami attract most dive tourists.
