The Island
Find Paradise in the Turks and Caicos Islands
The Turks and Caicos Islands are a breathtaking chain of 40 islands and cays, with eight inhabited by locals and visitors alike. Positioned 550 miles southeast of Miami, just below the Bahamas, the islands rest in one of the Atlantic Ocean's warmest and most vibrant stretches of water. Blessed with calm, sun-drenched weather, these islands see very little rain and bask in over 350 days of sunshine each year. Nestled on the exclusive Turtle Tail peninsula, Tip of the Tail offers a haven of luxury, surrounded by stately estates, celebrity homes-including Prince's legendary retreat-and unmatched privacy for the discerning traveler.

Dive into the Secrets Beneath the Waves
Turks & Caicos is more than a beach getaway. It’s an ecosystem for adventure seekers, thrill enthusiasts, and sun-and-sand lovers alike.
In 2004, during Hurricane Frances, a privately-owned freighter broke loose and drifted into the Caribbean Sea.
Built in 1952 by the Russian Navy as the cargo ship Fort Shevchenko
Witnessed the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962
Sold to a local islander in the mid-1990s
The shipwreck now rests on a shallow reef just five minutes from Tip of the Tail. Rusting and weathered, it serves as a landmark and a hidden gem, rarely visited by tourists.
Our guests can enjoy private access through the neighboring marina. Certified guides can pick you up directly from our beach for a safe and unforgettable exploration.
Whether observed from sea level or explored up close, the shipwreck offers a unique and striking backdrop for photography amidst crystal-clear waters.
Culture and Heritage
The Turks & Caicos Islands are a sun-soaked, welcoming paradise with a history that stretches back nearly 700 years before Columbus arrived in 1492. The Turks Islanders are warm, friendly, and proud to share their home with visitors, creating an atmosphere that feels both safe and inviting. Many North Americans have chosen to make the islands their home, drawn by the perfect climate, strong investment opportunities, and close proximity to the United States and Canada.
Today, the islands are entering an exciting era, boasting the fastest-growing economy in the Caribbean. Thoughtful and carefully managed development ensures that the natural beauty and cultural heritage of Turks & Caicos are preserved, maintaining the islands as a pristine sanctuary for residents and visitors to enjoy for generations to come.
