Salt Cay

What a beautiful spot. If you want to go somewhere without a lot of people and a bunch of resorts, this is it. It’s lovely, unspoiled and has a population of about 80-90 locals. It’s 3 square miles and you have to take a tiny plane to get here from Provodenciales. But if you want Club Med, this ain’t it.

Take your own provisions in a cooler and bring an extra book. Prepare to catch up on your sleep. It’s hard to even find a telephone. The upside is that the scuba diving is fantastic and the beautiful, beautiful beaches are empty – literally – most of the time. You can also swim with the humpback whales when they are here during their migration in late winter/early spring.
