Tobago
"She Becomes More Beautiful"


Over the centuries we have been called many other things. For example, when the Dutch and the Spanish and the French fought over her, she was described as:

The Pearl of the Antilles.

More recently she was described as

Enigmatic.

Yachtsmen have called her
The Unspoiled Caribbean.

And the most recent description is

Green, Pristine, Serene.

Why choose Tobago? Well, it is another word for 'quiet relaxing vacation'.

Accommodations- Elegant Upscale Or Inexpensive Or In-Between? You name it - we've got it.

Yes, we have the beaches. We have the sunshine. We have the balmy breezes.

But besides these things, there's the people. Laid back and hospitable,always willing to help. In some ways not sophisticated - but with a ready smile and bubbling laughter that disguises a native intelligence of their own.

And Such A Fascinating Way Of Talking.

The culture - similar to, yet different from, the sister island Trinidad.


And Oh - What An Incredibly Tumultuous History, as each of the Big Powers - and some not so big ones - took a kick at the can. "The football of the Caribbean" I call it. The island has changed hands some 30 times in 300 years!

Now, when a North-Sea diver goes to the trouble of building his own boat to sail around the world . . .

And when he drops anchor at this little island off the coast of South America. . . And when a dozen years later he is still there; then you just have to know he has found something!

Why not pay us a visit. Find your own something.

Do you understand why Tobago has become My Technicolor Island?

Where else could you see a group of young ladies in smart grey business suits, outside a shiny new parked Nissan sedan, with shoes off, and knocking ripe mangoes off a tree by pelting stones at them. They had a good aim, too.

If horse racing is the sport of kings, what do you call this?
