  The Turks Islands are separated from the Caicos Islands by Turks Island Passage. There are two main islands:
- Grand Turk (with the capital of the territory, Cockburn Town)
- Salt Cay

The Caicos Islands are the larger group. The unofficial capital of the Caicos Islands is the village of Kew on North Caicos. Main islands, from West to East:
- West Caicos
- Providenciales
- North Caicos
- Middle Caicos
- East Caicos
- South Caicos
- Ambergris Cay

Inhabited smaller islands, in the Caicos Cays between Providenciales and North Caicos:

As an addition for diving are a lot of small cays, such as French Cay.
