The weather outside is frightful, but Turks & Caicos is so delightful

Turks & Caicos FreedomTurks & Caicos FreedomWhy are you shoveling the cold white stuff when you could be wiggling your toes in the warm, endlessly seductive, white stuff?

If you're ready to trade your mid-winter sniffles for jungle fever, grab your girlfriends and head to GG's favorite luxurious island escape.

Nestle

If you're heading south with the girls, consider an upgrade. Sure, you could book individual rooms at a mid-level resort, but you'll have a lot more fun if you bunk together. The Somerset at Grace Bay offers 3, 4 or 5 bedroom penthouses.

It'll be like college, only with your own room, a kitchen that could hold your entire yoga class and a private hot tub big enough for all of you. Rates start at $2000 per night, January to March.

Adventure

Cozied-up behind the fourth longest barrier reef in the world, Turks & Caicos is a sea lover's dream Kayak, snorkel or scuba dive from dawn till dusk with Big Blue Unlimited. 

Not a surfer girl? Plant yourself on the beach during the day and spend your evenings sailing, sipping wine and watching the sun set.

Renew

Neighboring The Somerset on Grace Bay, The Palms Resort is home to a Mediterranean style oasis of pure indulgence, the Temple Spa.

One of their signature treatments, Zareeba, is available only after 6 pm. It begins with a detoxifying steam bath in a ritualistic chamber. Afterwards your body is wrapped, cooled and finally massaged. We're pretty sure you'll require a ride back to wherever you're staying.

Got a favorite hangout on Turks & Caicos?

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Julia Rosien said "Great to meet you as well, Terri. And yes, we adore the Bay of Fundy :-) While I'll agree it's no longer parka weather in your neck of the woods, it's not quite string bikini weather either. Shall we toast to it and let the beer warm us up? Happy St Paddy's Day! Julia"

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Terri said "hey Travel girls, great to hear that you love our Bay of Fundy here on the east coast of Canada as much as you love Tim Horton's ...and, as a Bay of Fundy chick, I love the green tide analogy. For sure, there will be lots of fun times down here around St Paddy's day but I just want to send you a correction to say you certainly won't be needing a parka? to visit at this time of year. It's +8 to +10 degress Celius (that's in the 50s F for our American friends) - definitely well above parka weather. haha So nice that the birds are chirping and the maple sap is flying out of the trees and, ultimately, on to our pancakes. Happy spring! Terri the Bay of Fundy blogger bayoffundy.blogspot.com "

  • On Bonaire - Landsailing or Diving, Ann Phelan said "I love when folks visit our island and immerse themselves in the very cool diversions offered..thanks for sharing."

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Sad and heavy heart said "On a note about the roads of Totrola which are steep, and windy and narrow, all the more reason that tour vehicles should have regular safety checks, SEATBELTS (which dirvers should mandate use or not allow passengers to continue with the tour, driver's should go slow, and Princess Cruise Lines should do extensive background checks, and not hire people with the nick-name of Crash-Dummy."

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Jan said "We were also on the ship with our friends, had spent the day at the beach in Tortola where the slider on my Omega came off, "broke" and lost. I had just purchased it on board the ship the day prior. But nothing can compare to the loss of a family member. The Captain had everyones attention for the announcement. Captain Draper done a great job informing the passengers of the accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rumphrey family."
