Let's Go Places Travel News

Hello

First off, I wish you all a Happy, Safe, and Enjoyable 4th of July! I am grateful we're getting to physically celebrate it with good friends and a BBQ!

It sure feels good to be planning travel again. This week alone I received numerous requests for vacations to two of my personal favorites, Costa Rica and Panama!

In today's edition of Let's Go Places, I'd like to introduce you to the islands that are often called "the World's best-kept secret". I am talking about the islands of Turks & Caicos.

You’ve never heard of Turks and Caicos? Rest assured: You are not alone. It’s a group of small islands just 90 flight minutes from Florida, a British Overseas Territory southeast of the Bahamas.

Unlike many Caribbean countries, the Turks and Caicos have one of the lowest annual rainfall averages in the region. Consequently, you’ll be able to enjoy many sunny days and in general great weather throughout the year.

Are you looking for a family vacation, honeymoon, or romantic getaway? These islands are perfect for anyone wanting to enjoy beautiful white-sand beaches, turquoise waters, and lots of fun water activities.

Let's "dive" right in!
