Tobago
Remember the most exhilarating time you’ve ever had, with the most enchanting
company, in the most memorable of places......now imagine
that time magnified; then you’ll have some idea
of what to expect in Trinidad and Tobago.
This most southerly
destination in the Caribbean chain of islands fulfils all your expectations
of the all-in-one exotic getaway. Trinidad,
unsurpassed
in its ability to turn any event into a fete, will keep you on the go
at a steady pace from all-inclusive parties, to beach outings (limes),
to rainforest hikes. Tobago, the smaller of the two, with its life-in-the-tropics
allure, offers palm-fringed beaches and tropical breezes for a mellowing
effect. But so easygoing — and
diverse — is the makeup of both Trinidad and Tobago, your vacation
can be whatsoever you choose to make of it.
If you’re looking for sun-and-sea siestas, or more sporty surfing
and diving action, the beach options in both islands are several. Festivals
abound in this country; just time your visit right and you can be part
of the raving Trinidad Carnival or the traditions of the Tobago Heritage
Festival — just to name two. And at any time of year, nightlife
is always alive! Local theatre, fine dining and art galleries provide
more subdued entertainment.
Tobago
is the beautiful little sister island of Trinidad, which lies windward,
32km (20 miles) to the north-east of Venezuela and 250km (c.150 miles) to the south of Barbados.
Tropical
and unrivalled. There is only one description for it: luxuriant, pure
and unspoilt. It lies in complete harmony with white sand beaches,
idyllic bays, clear-blue seas, crystal clear waters, colourful, unspoilt
coral reefs, unique undersea world, waving palms and tropical rainforest.
It is ideally
proportioned: 41km in length and 11km wide. Year round sunshine, trade
winds that provide cooling breezes. In short, a pleasant tropical climate.
Air and
water temperatures are pleasantly warm throughout the year.
The average
temperature is 27ºC (80ºF) during the day and 23ºC
(73ºF) at night.
The rainy
season lasts from June - November, but the rain is far from incessant.
Persistent
rain is a rare occurrence. The rain showers are mostly brief and heavy,
after which the sun soon breaks through again. The mild dry season
from December - April is also the high season.
