The largest of the Turks and Caicos Islands, with its 48 square miles, Middle Caicos is accessible via a causeway from North Caicos. Ripe for development in the areas of agriculture and eco-tourism, Middle Caicos features the largest above ground cave system in the Bahamian and Turks and Caicos archipelago, containing artefacts from the once indigenous Lucayan Indians. The settlement of Bambarra is named after shipwrecked survivors from the African tribe of Bambarra.
It’s fascinating historical attractions aside, Middle Caicos is a very lush island suitable for agriculture, from the cultivation of medicinal herbs and plants like aloe vera, cassava, okra, guava, tamarinds, sapodillas, sugar apples and corn.
Currently its agricultural outlets supply produce primarily for local consumption, however with large tracks of land still available, Middle Caicos shows enormous potential for becoming a beautiful, tropical farming community, with secluded island homes catering to a buyer looking for the perfect, ‘green’ getaway on the sun.
Always sunny and graced by the presence of A-list celebrities year-round, Turks and Caicos is no doubt a paradise on earth. This island chain in the Caribbean Sea is known for its crystal clear waters, thriving marine life, picture-perfect beaches, and thrilling water activities. What’s more, with friendly locals and English being the official language, it’s no wonder this tropical haven is a favorite vacation destination among Americans and other English-speaking tourists.
Turks and Caicos is located between the Bahamas and Dominican Republic. Although it’s quite far from the European mainland, this small archipelago has been a British Overseas Territory since 1799. Out of the 40 islands and cays (low-lying bank, reef, or sand), only nine are inhabited. Most of the population live on Providenciales island (often referred to as “Provo”), where all international flights are directed.
