About Tobago

At the southern end of the Caribbean, only a bird flight form the South American continent, Tobago is a complete contrast to the sophistication of some of its neighbours.It is probably the most natural Caribbean island of them all. With the oldest rainforest reserve in the world, since 1764, the island forests are filled with the sound of birds and the colour and delicacy of orchids, heliconias and hibiscus. There are old cocoa plantations and citrus orchards with wonderful views of the sea on one side and rolling hills on the other.

The Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea around the island have pristine coral reefs and over 400 Marine species including the reportedly 2nd largest Brain Coral in the world. The famous Buccoo Reef and Nylon Pool can be visited by Glass Bottom boat and is a definite must for all visitors.Tobago is the ideal destination for those wanting to unwind in the authentic Caribbean.
