Caicos Islands

People of Turks and Caicos Islands : the dominant population in the island belongs to people of African origin, whose ancestors were brought to slave in the islands' many cotton plantations and salt ponds. This group is called the 'Belongers'. Apart from them, there are several expatriates from the neighboring archipelagos of Haiti, Bahamas and Dominica. There are also people of America, Britain, Canada and other parts of Europe living in harmony with the Belongers.


Flora and Fauna of Turks and Caicos Islands : the Turks and Caicos Islands do not have a very exotic list of flora and fauns to boast of. The richness found in their natural surroundings is restricted to the water bodies that surround it. However, they are not devoid of plant and animal life either. Their flora consists of most varieties that are considered to be typically tropical. So, you will find plenty of palms. There are several species of exotic flowers, like the orchid, for instance, to be scattered over the island. Yet, it is for their marine life that the Turks and Caicos Islands are most famous. It has mesmerizing expanses of coral reefs all around it. Various types of fishes and other marine animals can be sighted as they use the waters around the islands as a migratory transit. So, some of the species to look out for are the manta rays, turtles, humpback whales, dolphins and spotted eagle rays.


Climate of Turks and Caicos Islands : temperature variations in the Turks and Caicos Islands are never drastic. What's more, the regular sweep of the easterly trade-winds helps in maintaining this balance. However, the general tendency of the weather in the Turks and Caicos Islands is to stay on the warmer side. The peak of summer is between September and October, while the winter peaks in the months of December, January and February.
