Introducing Tobago

Tobago has everything you’d expect from a Caribbean island, with palm trees and white sand aplenty, yet it’s relatively unchanged by the tourist industry. Combined, this twin-island republic offers unparalleled bird-watching, first-class diving, luxuriant rain-forests prime for hiking, waterfall swimming and cycling, and electric nightlife, with the fabulous Carnival easily the biggest and best of the region’s annual blowouts.

Presentation Transcript


  1. Introducing Tobago Tiny Tobago (just 42km across) slouches in a deck chair with a beer in hand watching its crystalline waters shimmer in the sun. Though Tobago is proud of its rainforest, fantastic dive sites, stunning aquamarine bays and nature reserves. Choose between plush ocean-side hotels or tiny guesthouses in villages.

  2. Places In Tobago

  3. Crown Point Spread over Tobago’s southwest tip, Crown Point is the island’s tourist epicenter, offering a relatively wide range of accommodation, restaurants, and some nightlife. The attractive beaches and extensive services make many tourists stay put, but anyone wanting a deeper appreciation of Tobago’s charms should plan to push eastward to explore other parts of the island. www.visittobago.gov.tt

  4. Scarborough Located 15 minutes’ drive east of Crown Point, Scarborough is the island’s only city, a crowded port with bustling one-way streets and congested traffic. Locals come here to bank, pay bills or go shopping, and though there are some good places to grab a bite and a neat public market, most visitors will want to push onward. www.visittobago.gov.tt

  5. Buccoo Though its narrow strip of white sand is monopolized by fishing boats at the village end, Buccoo's sweeping palm-backed bay is pretty spectacular, though it's more a place to hang out or take a horse ride than throw down your towel. www.visittobago.gov.tt

  6. Things To Do In Tobago

  7. Fort King George • Atop a hill at the end of Fort St, this sizable fort was built by the British between 1777 and 1779, and is worth a visit to see its restored colonial-era buildings and magnificent views. Benches under enormous saaman trees allow you to gaze out over Scarborough bay, while cannons line the fort’s stone walls, pointing out to sea over palm-covered flatlands below. • The officers’ quarters now contain the small but worthy Tobago Museum , which displays a healthy collection of Amerindian artifacts, maps from the 1600s, military relics, a small geology exhibit. www.visittobago.gov.tt

  8. Pirate’s Bay Walk to the north end of the village, and take the dirt track winding up and around the cliff, and a 10-minute walk brings you to the top of the concrete steps that descend to Pirate’s Bay, which offers excellent snorkeling and fantastic beach liming, with locals and visitors making a day of it with coolers and games of beach football. www.visittobago.gov.tt

  9. Little Tobago (Paradise Island) Also known as Bird of Paradise Island (though it isn't home to any of the eponymous birds), Little Tobago was the site of a cotton plantation during the late 1800s, and is now an important seabird sanctuary that offers rich pickings for bird-watchers. Red-billed tropic birds, magnificent frigate birds, brown boobies, Audubon’s shearwaters, laughing gulls and sooty terns are some of the species found here. The hilly, arid island, which averages just 1.5km in width, has a couple of short hiking trails with captivating views. www.visittobago.gov.tt

  10. Pigeon Point You have to pay to get access to Pigeon Point, the fine dining of Tobago’s beaches, with landscaped grounds, bars, restaurants, toilets and showers spread along plenty of beachfront. The postcard-perfect, palm-fringed beach has powdery white sands and milky aqua water; around the headland, the choppy waters are perfect for wind- and kite-surfing with Radical Watersports. www.visittobago.gov.tt
