Turks and Caicos Islands. Salt Cay, Turks and Caicos Islands Visitor's Guide. Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos Islands. Grand Turk is the administrative and political capital of the Turks & Caicos Islands and Cockburn Town has been the seat of government since 1766. This small island is bursting with turn-of-the-century Caribbean charm. Founded by Bermudan Salt Rakers some three centuries ago, its Bermudan British colonial architecture amidst the colorful, Caribbean-style local dwellings make Grand Turk worth a visit. Donkeys, horses and cattle were the means of transportation during the salt industry, and these animals are seen still wondering the streets and countryside of Grand Turk.

Every summer Grand Turk becomes party town. In July Grand Turk is host to the annual Grand Turk Heineken Game Fishing Tournament, a fun-filled event for local and visiting sportspeople as well as party enthusiasts. Also sometime between June and September, Grand Turk parties down again with a week full of dancing to island music, sporting challenges, local food and much fun and other events to break up the heat of summer.. Grand Turk Scuba Diving: Conch Shack. The definitive guide to Dominica's Boiling Lake trail & hike, lo. Part III: The Valley of Desolation to The Lake Time taken: Approx 1 hour From the ridge, the trail descends steeply into The Valley of Desolation, and the climb down is hard enough, until one does it on the way back!

At the bottom of the Valley the trail becomes vague, crossing and recrossing the stream, so be careful. There are several places where you can bathe in the soothing warm waters of the stream, but don't spend too much time soaking - you don't want your muscles to become all mushy for the long hard hike back afterwards! From the Valley it's generally uphill to a point where one can look down on another area of 'Desolation'.

Part IV: The Lake Elevation: 2,640ft On arrival at the Lake, go to the visitors centre or join the shortest queue at the McDonalds. Please exercise extreme caution at the lake: the sides are steep and though the hill above the lake offers the best views, the rocks are often very slippy.

History of Saint Kitts and Nevis - Wikipedia, the free encyclope. Saint Kitts and Nevis have one of the longest written histories in the Caribbean, both islands being among Spain's and England's first colonies in the archipelago. Despite being only two miles apart and quite diminutive in size, Saint Kitts and Nevis were widely recognized as being separate entities with distinct identities until they were forcibly united in the late 19th century.

Pre-Columbian Period (2900 B.C. to 1493 A.D.) [edit] The first settlers to arrive to the islands, almost 3,000 years B.C., were a pre-agricultural, pre-ceramic people, who migrated down the archipelago from Florida. These hunter-gatherers for years were mistakenly thought to be the Ciboney, an Amerindian race from Cuba.

However, archaeological evidence has proven that they were in actuality a group which has been labelled simply "Archaic people". Around 1300 A.D., the Kalinago, or Carib people arrived on the islands.
