Cockburn Town is the capital of Turks and Caicos, and is located on the island of Grand Turk.

While most of Turks and Caicos is very chill, North Caicos takes it to a whole other level. This island is much more rural and undeveloped than the others, making it the perfect place to get away from it all and reconnect with nature. Surrounded by lush vegetation and miles of unspoiled beaches, North Caicos is a true nature lover's paradise.

There are a number of villas and cottages available for rent in North Caicos. Spend your days lounging on the beach, taking a hike through the lush vegetation, swimming in one of the many secluded beaches, or simply relax in a hammock and take in the incredible views.

There are a few small resorts on North Caicos, but for the most part, this island is still fairly untouched. This is the perfect place to go if you're looking for a truly rustic and authentic experience. You will find yourself surrounded by incredible beauty, and will quickly fall in love with the laid-back lifestyle.

Blue Hills is one of the most popular areas on Providenciales and is known as one of the three original settlements on the island. Follow the Blue Hills Road for one of the most epic drives throughout Turks, past incredible landscapes and down to the secluded beaches that make this area so special.

If you’re looking for an intimate beach experience, Blue Hills is definitely the place to go. The area is located on the Northwest side of the island and is known for its dramatic cliffs, small hidden coves, and tranquil turquoise waters. Turks and Caicos towns tend to look very different from other Caribbean islands, as their homes and architecture are not as bright and colourful. However in Blue Hills you will experience all the typical Caribbean vibes with colourful homes, small beach bars, and super friendly locals.

Blue Hills main beach isn't always the best for swimming as there can be quite a bit of seaweed, however if you walk around the rocks (or drive down the Blue Hills Road) you will find many small coves and beaches that offer picture-perfect swimming conditions. If you’re looking for a beach day with fewer people, head to Bight Beach or Smith’s Reef which are both located in close proximity to Blue Hills.
