During the 1990s the Turks and Caicos Islands, situated just south of the Bahamas, have come to gain international accolade as a premier dive destination and luxury retreat. While the marine life and beaches serve as the nation's main magnet, these islands have much more to offer the discerning tourist. This book takes the reader on a colourful journey throughout this small archipelago, exploring its natural delights and history, from Taino Indian occupation to future islands developments. Through their story-telling, photographs and illustrations, Julia and Phil Davies celebrate the magic of the Turks and Caicos, providing a keepsake for both visitors and islander alike.

Tranquil turquoise seas: limestone foundations; reef relations; the flowering pioneers; littoraly living. Land above the waves: flights of fancy; floral survivors; the sea-spawned landscape; a collection of castaways. The sands of time: the dawn of discovery; islands of white gold; life on a thread; the bountiful sea. New horizons: a cornucopia of delights; aquatic adventures; old-world charm; the tide of change.
