Visibility is excellent, often over 100 ft. Provo ), is 12 miles long with white sand, and although many hotels are found along it, it still has many untouched areas. Uninhabited East Caicos has a beautiful 17-mile beach on its north coast. Many beaches in the islands and cays are accessible only by boat. B ritish V irgin I slands The British Virgin Islands, about 60 miles east of Puerto Rico and less than one mile from the U.S. Virgin Islands, are a group of about 50 islands, islets and cays, most of which lie around the Sir Francis Drake Channel. Tortola, about 10 square miles, and Virgin Gorda, 8 square miles, are the largest ones. Most of them are volcanic, with exception of Anegada, a coral atoll 15 miles north of the rest of the archipelago. Other important islands are Jost Van Dyke, Norman, Peter and Beef Island, where the International Airport is located. First inhabited by Siboney indians, the islands were visited by Christopher Columbus on his second voyage to America, in 1493. Spaniards looked for gold and pirates took advantage of the islands' many hidden coves. Dutch settlers arrived in the 17th century, but soon the British replaced them. Nowadays the BVI have a governor appointed by England, but their constitution allows some autonomy from UK.

ReefNews Geography: Grand Turk Grand Turk is the capital of the Turks and Caicos Islands. The Turks and Caicos Islands are in the Atlantic Ocean. These islands are approximately 575 miles southeast of Miami, Florida. Grand Turk is 6 miles long and 1 mile wide. The map above shows the Turks and Caicos Islands. The Caicos Islands are larger and more numerous than the Turks Islands. The Caicos Islands are to the west, and the Turks Islands are to the east. These two island groups are separated by a deep ocean trench. This trench is the Turks Islands Passage. The trench is 30 miles wide and over 7000 feet deep! This trench is a great place to see many oceanic creatures. In the springtime, whales migrate through the Turks Islands Passage. The Turks and Caicos Islands are a colony of Great Britain. The capital city of Grand Turk is Cockburn Town. During the 1998-1999 school year, ReefNews took a long journey to Grand Turk and saw many marine creatures, dove into the great Turks Island Passage barely 1/4 mile west of the west coast, and saw a beach which may have been Columbus's first landing place in the New World. We also visited the Turks and Caicos National Museum to see the remains of a mysterious shipwreck that is nearly 500 years old. Was this one of Columbus's ships?

Home Archaeology Astrolabe Newsletter Become A Museum Member ... Trustees Search Go Geography and Geology Plateaus composing the the Turks and Caicos Islands Geography The Geology These remnants of continental Cave on Middle Caicos debris are buried under thousands of feet of limestone rock which has been formed by the deposition of skeletal remains from marine organisms and precipitation of calcium carbonate material. Precipitation is a process where, under the right conditions, the dissolved minerals in the sea water are deposited to form small particles called ooids. These ooids then cement together to form oolite rock, which makes up most of the Turks and Caicos area. Additional rock was formed by the fossilized remains of plankton, algae, coral, shellfish, and the waste pellets of flat fish. On all of the Islands caves can be found. These have been formed when slightly acidic water dissolves the limestone. The caves on Middle Caicos form the largest cave network in the Bahamian archipelago. These caves are ideal habitats for wildlife and were used by the Lucayans , for whom they had religious significance. For a short while there was a guano industry, where bat droppings were collected for use in the production of fertiliser. These sinkholes and caves provide wonderful sources of research material for paleontologists and archaeologists.
