Iguana at the sanctuary at Little Water Cay, Turks and Caicos Islands

The Turks and Caicos Rock Iguana is a protected species. Visitors can take short boat ride to Little Water Cay to see the iguanas. They feed on berries, leaves and fruit (Sapodilla is a favourite) and live in shallow burrows. This is a great place to take the kids. The National Trust has built a board walk so visitors can walk the trail, stop to take photos and see the iguanas at close range. Make a point of stopping at Little Water Cay when you visit Providenciales and the Turks and Caicos Islands. See you soon!

Iguanas

Friendly iguana on Bay Cay just off the marina at Harbour Club Villas

A short boat ride or a two mile kayak trip takes you to Bay Cay. Guests at Harbour Club have spent all day on this little island (they call them “cays” here ) exploring, snorkeling, fishing, lazing in the sun on the beach and getting up close and friendly with the iguanas. This one was very gentle as he ate an apple from Scott’s hand. Organized trips are available to see the iguanas at Little Water Cay, Turks and Caicos Islands. Hope you get a chance to see one or two on your visit here.
