Below we recommend to you places of interest
on the island and a quick browse through them
will give you a clear idea of what to expect
when you go sight-seeing in Tobago. Let us take
you on a round tour of the Island’s sites
starting at Crown Point.
Buccoo Reef
and The Nylon Pool
Glass bottomed boats over some of the best reefs
in the Caribbean are available daily from Store
Bay and Pigeon Point to Buccoo Reef and Nylon
Pool. Snorkellers can get a closer look at the
different kind of coral and enjoy the marine
life such as jewel fish and reef sharks. The
Nylon Pool is a warm shallow coral sand bank
hundreds of yards out to sea where the water
is a few feet deep – wonderfully warm,
calm and a delight to swim in.
Fort Milford
and Fort Bennett
Fort Milford was established by the British
in 1777, captured by the French who occupied
it until 1793 when it returned to British rule,
it is not only an interesting historical site
but makes a perfect location to enjoy the magnificent
sunsets.
Fort Bennett was built in 1778 by the British
to protect the coast against US privateers,
provides wonderful views of Stonehaven Bay.
Here you will enjoy peace in the ruins of this
historic site, also a magical early morning
view of the rising sun.
Plymouth
 |
This is a village with an historical Fort (Fort
James) and a mystery tombstone which intrigues
and puzzles all visitors with its strange inscription,
part of which reads “She was a mother without
knowing it, and a wife without letting her husband
know it, except by her kind indulgences
to him”
Arnos Vale
Water Wheel Park
Inward from Plymouth and Arnos Vale Bay you
will find a former sugar plantation/factory,
which is well worth a visit with its magnificent
water wheel and powerhouse of the original estate
still in evidence. There is a small museum to
enjoy and a nature trail excellent for bird
watching (where mot mots and young iguanas are
known to frequent). There is also a gift shop
and restaurant.Travelling round the Island to
the northern tip of Tobago on our way to Charlottesville
we arrive at Flagstaff Hill.
Flagstaff
Hill
 |
Flagstaff Hill is the site of a former American
military radio tower and observation point during
World War 2 and here we can enjoy not only a
panoramic view of the St. Gile’s Islands
but also magnificent sunsets.
