Island of Tobago - Things to Do

The idyllic Island of Tobago has stunning scenery with views of coves, deserted beaches, the rain forest, rivers and waterfalls as well as the Historical sites and forts. You can take a tour bus or better still hire a car for about £20 - £25 per day and only £10 to fill the tank. There is also a public bus service all around the island.

The colourful coral reefs can be viewed from a glass bottom boat at Buccoo or you can snorkel from the beach at many different spots. You may well see Manta Ray's, Turtles, and many varieties of reef fish. Needless to say the diving is superb at many dive sites around the island with good dive shops. Expect to pay around £20.00 per dive including the equipment but packages and courses can be arranged to suite each diver. The boat trips are fun, you can stop at he beach for barbecue lunch and get free drinks for about £25.00 or you can charter a boat to go where you want if you have a group of people.

The Rainforest is very interesting to see i.e.: - birds, butterflies, tropical trees and plants. You can hike for a short way or go for long treks in the jungle, stopping for a swim in the river by the waterfalls.
