Despite any recent perceptions, the Caribbean islands of Turks and Caicos are making sure that tourists know it is still a viable and welcoming destination.
Turks and Caicos had a recent bad run of unfortunate behavior when several tourists were arrested for mistakenly bringing ammunition to the islands, facing prison time as a result.
Turks and Caicos is situated just south of the Bahamas and comprised of approximately 40 islands.
