• Tobago has a fantastic range of scenery – rainforests, green hills, white sand beaches, stunning bays
• Has very low key development – good facilities without being over developed
• Home to an amazing array of birds over 200 species can be viewed, and often from your terrace, where brightly coloured humming birds will visit at dusk
• Plenty of excursions and exploring to do
• There’s a championship 18 hole golf course
• Wide range of accommodation and restaurants to suit all tastes

Things to think about:

Tobago’s rainfall increases quite sharply in May and June (unlike Barbados and Antigua, for example) so it’s more difficult to go off season and still avoid the rain, although April is still a good bet.

Great excursions

• to the rainforest
• waterfalls
• glass-bottom boat trips to the coral reef
• bird spotting trips to remote bays

Flight time: around 9 hours direct from UK
