Turks & Caicos is a remote and untrammeled sportsman’s paradise right in America’s backyard, and M/Y Janie is the luxury way to enjoy all it offers.

Landfall: Twice the Fun

Article Specs  
"We did a familiarization cruise here with just the crew because no one knew anything about the place except Don," says Chief Stewardess Jane Bond. "Now we love it, and the guests that come here are usually easygoing. They’re looking for a real escape. They want to go bonefishing or dive, then relax, and this is the place for it."

T&C has long been a secret of traveling scuba divers, who are attracted by its close proximity to North America and its underwater bounty. Wall diving along the sheer cliffs of the Caicos Bank between the islands of French Cay and West Caicos is a particular favorite. More than 10,000 feet deep, the trench is where divers sight big pelagics, such as sharks, rays and whales. (Click image to enlarge)

Scanning the entire horizon from the hot tub on Janie’s sun deck, we realize that we are the only people here—even the island is uninhabited. We munch on Chef Dee’s delectable appetizers and chase them with cold cocktails. As the sun sets, we hope to see the sunset’s green flash, and not another yacht anchored nearby. Of the first we can’t be sure; of the second, we are quite positive—and quite happy.
