Getting There
-
Walking
If you are in South Caicos, start from the main settlement of Cockburn Harbour. Head west towards the beach. Follow the coastline along the dirt path, keeping the ocean to your right. Continue walking for about 30 minutes until you reach the end of the beach. From there, look for a trail that leads inland. This trail will take you through some local vegetation and may have some rocky areas, so be cautious. After about 15 minutes of walking, you will reach an area where the trail forks. Take the left path, which leads you towards Tarpon Point. Continue on this path for another 10 minutes and you will arrive at Tarpon Point.
-
Bicycle
If you have rented a bicycle in South Caicos, start from Cockburn Harbour. Ride westward along the main road until you reach the first intersection. Turn right and continue until you hit the coast. Once you reach the beach, you can park your bicycle and follow the coastline on foot. Walk along the beach for approximately 30 minutes, keeping the water to your right. After reaching the end of the beach, look for a trail that goes inland, and follow the previous walking directions from there.
-
Boat
If you are near the shoreline and have access to a small boat or kayak, you can paddle towards Tarpon Point directly from Cockburn Harbour. Head southwest along the coast, keeping an eye on the shoreline for navigational landmarks. The journey by boat will take approximately 15-20 minutes, depending on your speed. Make sure to approach the point carefully, as it can be a bit rocky. Once you reach the area, you can dock your boat and explore Tarpon Point on foot.
