Tobago

If cool Caribbean vibes and picture-perfect beaches make up your travel wishlist, holidays in Tobago are calling. Life may be blissfully laid-back here but a Tobago holiday offers a plethora of enticing activities and adventure to complement its incredible paradise beaches. Perfectly formed crescents of powder-soft sand are lined with shading palm trees and atmospheric beach bars and hotels offering magnificent tropical views, while a wide array of watersports are on offer for those seeking something more exhilarating.

When you’ve had plenty of exposure at the beach, head out inland on the scenic coastal drive to explore the stunning three-tiered Argyle Waterfalls, Tobago’s most iconic landmark. A hike through thick forests to the fishing village of Charlotteville is adventurous and exciting, while the steep hairpin bends reveal cottages perched against verdant woods. From there, the amazing Pirate’s Bay is accessible via a narrow road to the ocean. You could also drive down to the Pirate’s Bay on a 4×4 trek, take a ferry to Tobago’s sister isles and even embark on a trip to the cocoa estate for a tantalising taste of Tobago’s famous chocolate.

Adventure seekers can also savour an unforgettable experience snorkelling through beautiful coral and swimming with dolphins around Buccoo Reef, considered one of the most spectacular reefs in the world with its abundance of colourful marine fauna. Once described by Princess Margaret to be as clear as a Nylon stocking, a pool by the same name welcomes swimmers in the middle of the ocean, or you can take a glass-bottom boat tour. Visit during the summer months or wait for winter sun, Tobago holidays boast balmy temperatures all year round whether you are travelling on a family holiday, a romantic getaway or on a honeymoon.
