Haulover Point
Middle CaicosHaulover Point is a remote and beautiful area on Middle Caicos found on the east side of the island. The beaches here vary a bit—some spots are sheltered and shallow, while others are a bit rougher. Haulover Plantation is located approximately halfway down the road to Haulover Point.
The Haulover beaches are not great for swimming or snorkeling. However, they are excellent for general exploring and flotsam beachcombing. The cliffs and coastal hills in the area also offer amazing vistas.
When the ocean and tides offer good visibility, the cliffs nearby are a good spot to watch for large fish and sharks in the water below.
Off the eastern side of the coast is Tony Rock (a high-elevation limestone isle).
The Scenic Drive
Haulover Point itself isn’t as spectacular as some of the other beaches on Middle Caicos and North Caicos, but part of the attraction of the site is the beautiful surrounding terrain.
On the drive out, you’ll pass Lorimers Creek and Haulover Ponds (Farm Creek Ponds), two adjacent yet quite different wetlands. If you continue southeast from Haulover Point, you’ll find Wild Cow Run and Cedar Point, both of which are secluded and impressively beautiful.
Drive carefully when in the area and avoid sandy patches. Cellular coverage can be spotty, and it can be quite the hike to get assistance. Bring plenty of drinking water for these reasons as well.
