Dragon Cay is located at the Mudjin Harbour Beach on the north side of Middle Caicos in the Turks and Caicos Islands

To get there, you'll drive to the Dragon Cay Resort. They have two free parking lots. The first one is a big dirt parking lot and the second one is a smaller dirt parking lot.

Both of these parking lots are on the road that take you to the Mudjin Bar and Grill Restaurant.

This is what the large parking lot looks like.

From the smaller parking lot, you'll walke past the restaurant and take the trail down to the beach.

As you get closer to the beach, you'll see a large cavern/cave area in the shade with some benches. You'll walk past that onto this beautiful beach.

It was a hot day, so the first thing we decided to do was to get into the water and do some snorkeling. We got in right by the cliffs. This is what it looked like:

After snorkeling, we got out of the water and walked over to the sandbar at Dragon Cay.

It was low tide, so we walked out to explore the little beach on Dragon Cay. We would recommend wearing some water shoes during low tide to make it easier to walk out.

After exploring Dragon Cay, we decided to walk down Mudjin Harbour Beach. This is a long beach with crystal clear water and super soft sand. This is what it looks like:
