 The Turks and Caicos embody romance. A rich history, gorgeous scenery and warm breezes are the elements of your very own romantic story.
Whether you are visiting for a romantic getaway, a wedding or a Caribbean honeymoon, the Turks and Caicos is the place for love. Although couples often much of their time relaxing on the beach or enjoying the fine dining of the islands, Turks and Caicos has some romantic attractions that should not be missed.
On Salt Cay, couples will want to visit White House, an island landmark. White House was built in 1835 by a wealthy salt proprietor. The home was built from the timbers of the ship that brought the family to Salt Cay. White House was built in the classic Bermudan style with its living quarters above and salt storage area below. The house has been impeccably preserved and will transport visitors back to the romantic early days of Salt Cay.
Salt Cay is also the hub for whale watching. On your romantic getaway, see the majestic whales' migration while listening to their siren song.
Grand Turk also has its share or romantic attractions. At the northern tip is the Grand Turk Lighthouse. The lighthouse was constructed in the United Kingdom in 1852 and was brought to Grand Turk in pieces. The lighthouse has been painstakingly restored to its previous glory and is protected by the National Trust.
Legend has it that the Turks and Caicos was the first landing spot for Columbus in 1492. Many argue that the lighthouse hill and the inland body of water fit Columbus’ description of the island he first discovered on his voyage. Imagine standing with your loved one, viewing the beauty of the ocean or the setting sun from the vantage point of the Grand Turk Lighthouse.
Although it is the largest of the islands in the Turks and Caicos, Middle Caicos is the least populated. Middle Caicos has lush green gardens and majestic fruit trees. Sailing, kayaking and snorkeling are all activities enjoyed by visitors to Middle Caicos.
This island also boasts beautiful natural limestone caves including Conch Bar Caves and Village Caves. These caves on Middle Caicos are the largest of their kind in the Caribbean. The natural wonder of the caves and the privacy that comes from its lack of crowds makes Middle Caicos a perfect choice for privacy seeking couples on a romantic getaway.
