Caicos

Turks' island partner

Caicos refers to a group of islands in the Atlantic Ocean, part of the Turks and Caicos Islands—a British Overseas Territory southeast of the Bahamas.

The Caicos Islands are the larger of the two island groups, including Providenciales, the main tourist destination.

The word appears almost exclusively in the compound Turks and Caicos.
