PILOT CHARTS

TURKS AND CAICOS Charts provide historic points and aggregated information of  wind flows, air and ocean temperatures, wave heights, rain, barometric weight, and climate conditions at various seasons. This data was acquired from oceanographic and meteorologic perceptions over hundreds of years starting in the late eighteenth century. These diagrams are planned to help mariners choose routes around and approaching Turks and Caicos with respect to the normal climate and sea conditions using prevailing seasonal wind information. For an explanation of historic Cuban Climatology and how to read Wind-roses follow this link.
