Grand Turk Attractions

 
Grand Turk presents expanses of quiet sugary beaches. Grand Turk's rustic Cockburn Town, the island's center of finance and government, has a selection of historic buildings including Bermudian Colonial and colorful Caribbean-style buildings. Donkeys, horses and cattle may wander the streets as a reminder of the island's extinct salt industry.

Visitors to The Turks and Caicos National Museum will be introduced to the Hemisphere's oldest shipwreck and at the north point of the island is the only hurricane shelter for yachts traveling between Nassau and Puerto Rico. With a population of around 3,720 people, Grand Turk is six mi/9.6km long and just over a mile/1.6km wide.
