Northwest Point is a great place to go bird watching. The beach and cliff coastal region, as well as the inland saline ponds, both attract birds.

Ospreys, brown pelicans, terns, American oyster catchers, gulls, green herons, yellow-crowned night herons, reddish egrets, stilts, warblers, and ducks are common sightings.

    It was pretty tough to get there in our little rental car, but we made it. Almost got stuck in the soft sand. We'd recommend not trying this if you don't have a lot of off-road experience. The views are amazing, and there is plenty of wildlife and shells to search out. We spent a few hours here and never saw another person, which is just perfect for us.

    So we rented a jeep and wanted to go to the national park. The parks in Turks are not staffed or monitored they are just undeveloped areas. The road out here is only passible with 4x4, don’t come out with a regular car or you’ll get stuck for sure. It was a fun drive in the Jeep about 15 mins once the paved road ends. It’s only wide enough for 1 vehicle and youll be scraping brush the whole time.Once you get out to the end at the NW point it has a nice view. Some tide pools in the rocks. Turks has some pretty crazy laws like going in the water or fishing there will cost you $50,000 plus jail time… so beware just enjoy the scenery. About scenery the one star down is for all the trash everywhere. It’s all over and we took a bunch of it back with us in the jeep to throw away at the hotel but didn’t make a dent in all of it.

    Beautiful beach and road. Highly recommend for those who like to explore remote locations. Google maps leads you to a road that is inaccessible. If you follow the road, there will be a transition to dirt with an electric building on the left. I recommend walking this as (pictured) the thin sand road is difficult to traverse without an ATV or a Jeep. The walk is not that long, about 1 mile

    This beach is definitely more remote. You drive ~4.5 kilometers (~2 miles) on a dirt road until it comes to an even tinier sand road that can only fit a small car. Based on other reviews we decided to park the car and walk the small sand road (about 15-20 minutes). Once we got to the beach there was a TON of sea grass, but we walked to the official point and the view was totally worth it. The beach was really nice and the water looked great. Overall super awesome/adventurous experience.

    Cool spot to watch the sunset. Recommend a 4x4 vehicle to access. We were the only two people out there when we went. The road is very narrow and impossible to pass another vehicle along the majority. We stopped just short of the end as the road got more sandy and we were concerned about getting stuck in the sand. It was a short walk to the coast. The terrain is very rough and I highly recommend propper shoes and bug spray. There are two ship wrecks on the beach that are cool to check out.
