Beaches Resort, Working Vacation.. by Assira1

I was called about a week before I had to go.. from a fellow in a local circus.. he needed 4 stiltwalkers asap for this event at the resort. I have never been anywhere like this.. and also had only been on 2’ stilts for a wee bit at the time.. well I hooked up the other real stiltwalkers.. and learned how to dance on the 4’ stilts, got my passport and went down. It was lovely.. and it’s odd, over 30% of the Population is Canadian.. The locals were great.. It was a nice way to experience a resort.. meet some wild dogs, discover sea turtles, stingrays and blowfish..Pretty magical.

So glad... by Africa's Lost Child

Glad that I had the opportunity to go. I stayed at the Beaches Resort and had a great time with the fam. I could have done without the drunk high school grads though. I was fortunate to go behind the resort into the actual city, see some sights and eat at the Conch Shack. The Beaches Resort was nice, but defintely not representative of the entire city. Unfortunately, most people don’t realize that. It bothers me that people would rather spend days by a pool ordering drinks versus meeting and talking with the inhabitants, exploring the city and trying to understand the ways of living.

Ugh!

Club Med – 11 days in 1994 – fantastic. I got hooked on Club Med here. It was my first Club. We must have done 4 activities a day, not counting the eating and partying. Mostly in and on the water – water skiing, snorkel, sailing, basketball, beach volleyball, parasailing, windsurfing, tennis and so on. The Club is more expensive than some all-inclusives, but the equipment and the coaches were top-notch. If you want an active vacation, it’s the way to go. I’ve done other all-inclusives and had to pay extra for all those things. It ends up costing a lot more and the quality isn’t necessarily as good.

The islands have no significant railways, and 121 kilometres of highway, 24 km paved and 97 km unpaved. The territory’s main international ports and harbours are on Grand Turk and Providenciales. The islands have seven airports, located on each of the inhabited islands. Five have paved runways, three of which are around 2000 meters long and one around 1000 meters long. Two have unpaved runways, two of which are around 1000 meters long and one significantly shorter.

The two island groups are in the North Atlantic Ocean, southeast of the Bahamas, north of Hispaniola, and 914 km from Miami, at 21°45′N 71°35′W. The territory is geographically part of the Bahamas, but is politically a separate entity. The Caicos Islands are separated by the Caicos Passage from the closest Bahaman islands, Mayaguana and Great Inagua.
