USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice – Best Caribbean Beaches  “#2 Bambarra Beach”

Bambarra Beach in Middle Caicos, joins Grace Bay Beach as an award-winning beach with USA Today’s 10Best Reader’s Choice, #2 Best Beach in the Caribbean, today!

This is a tremendous win and award for the people of Middle Caicos and the Turks and Caicos Islands Archipelago and supports the strategic direction of Experience Turks and Caicos to promote the Turks and Caicos Islands as a premiere multi-island destination, with each island having its unique flavour and immersive experiences. 
Middle Caicos is the heartland of Turks and Caicos Islands’ culture, where traditional straw craft and fanner grass basketry, native sloop building, and model sailboat carving/racing is practiced. The island has three small friendly villages, Conch Bar, Bambarra, and Lorimers with a population of around 200 people.  Middle Caicos is known for its natural beauty and majestic coastline like no other island in the Archipelago.
As the name suggests, Middle Caicos is in the center of the Caicos Islands archipelago.  A causeway connects the island to the adjacent North Caicos, which makes island hopping an ease and charm.  Bambarra Beach fronts the small historical settlement of Bambarra, which has stood since the days of the Colonial Plantations in the late 1700s.
A day trip or twin island vacation to Middle Caicos includes captivating “Off the Beaten Track” experiences such as catching sight of the magnificent Pink Flamingos from the Flamingo Pond Overlook or taking a short hike above Mudjin Harbour Beach to capture the majestic view from atop the open-face cave that provides scenic shelter below on the white-sand beach. At the nearby Mudjin Grill, the onsite restaurant for the secluded Dragon Cay Resort, you can savour local culinary delights while watching the gentle ocean swells and inhaling the relaxing sea breeze.
On your way to or back from Middle Caicos is North Caicos, the lushest of all the islands thanks to the abundant rainfall, you can enjoy one-of-a-kind experiences such as exploring Conch Bar Caves, one of the largest dry cave systems in the Caribbean, Indian Caves, a large single gallery cave system or Wade’s Green Plantation.
Minister of Tourism, the Honourable Josephine Connolly, expressed her delight at Bambarra Beach’s recognition, emphasising the strategic marketing and promotion of Experience Turks and Caicos.  “We have been promoting the Turks and Caicos Islands as a multi-island destination, encouraging visitors to explore beyond Providenciales. The recognition of Bambarra Beach is the first of many more accolades to come for our multi-island destination as we continue to market and promote awareness the diversity and natural beauty of our multi-island destination and enhance our product across the Archipelago for visitors to explore and create unforgettable experiences,” she said.
“This award underscores the charm of Bambarra Beach and complements the charm of Grace Bay Beach accolades which include, World Travel Awards Caribbean’s Leading Beach Destination since 2015, Trip Advisor Travelers Choice Awards Best of the Best Beaches 2023, Conde Nast Traveler, 21 Most Beautiful Islands in the Caribbean and World Travel Awards Most Romantic Award since 2019,” Minister Connolly added.
With the recent opening of Ocean Breeze Resort, a boutique hotel in North Caicos, visitors have another reason to enjoy twin island vacations or holidays now between Providenciales and North Caicos.
