Now Is the Time

Ten reasons to go to the Turks and Caicos Islands RIGHT NOW:
 
  1. Great weather. Yes, there’s great weather there almost all the time, but I have found May-June to be particularly wonderful at the beach. It’s warm enough for swimming, but not so warm that you’re taking a seawater bath, and the sandblasting winds of winter have become a welcome breeze.
  2. Fewer people. The busy social scene of winter is over and you can enjoy the natural beauty in solitude.
  3. Things are still open. Local businesses have not yet closed for the off-season, so it’s still easy to find restaurants and bars that are open, and the stores are still well-stocked.
  4. I-Soon-Reach has joined the Turks Head Brewery family of beers (with Ain-Ga-Lie, Gon-Ta-Nort and Down-Da-Road) and needs sampling.
  5. Even very rich spring-breakers tend to go elsewhere.
  6. Trump drama.
  7. Brexit drama.
  8. Trudeau drama.
  9. It’s pollen season in northern climes. Clear your head.
  10. I don’t have a tenth reason. I simply claimed ten because that’s the listicle tradition (and for the record, I am not a fan of listicles but not above doing one). If you’ve got a number ten for me, please share!
