Formerly residents of all the Turks & Caicos Islands, dogs and cats introduced to the island have left all but Little Water Cay barren of these prehistoric-looking creatures.

Family Excursion to Little Water Cay

A particular favourite among families, your excursion to Little Water Cay will likely take little more than a half day, and the boat ride will be a quick ~15km journey there and back.
