North Caicos

North Caicos is the lushest of all the islands because of the abundant rainfall. The southern part of the island is dominated by swamplands and tidal flats. North Caicos is home to the largest flocks of flamingos in the islands. There are Loyalist plantation ruins and Lucayan artifacts were found in the caves near Sandy Point.

The agriculturally based population of around 1,500 live in the settlements of Bottle Creek Village, Whitby, Kew and Sandy Point. Daily connecting flights and boat charters are available, making North Caicos easily accessible. Car and bicycle rentals are available as well as taxis and guided tours.
