News in Tobago

A recent incident of serious crime (robbery and assault) invloving two foreign residents of Tobago resulted in the island receiving a lot of negative local, regional and international press.

Without delving into the facts of the unfortunate matter, we would like to assure all visitors to that island that the matter has received the fullest attention of the authorities.

Our research and findings have revealed that from the head of the Tobago House of Assembly (the islands governing body) to the tourim officials of the sister isle of Trinidad have been on site with these two long-time residents to ensure their recovery and satisfaction.

Tobago remains an eco-paradise very safe and extremely beautiful to visit. A few bad apples of criminal intent must not deter this island’s drive to continuing and enhancing its reputation of being a Caribbean island haven.

Tobago is rising again as being our region’s Robinson Crusoe isle, purposly keeping out the big hoteliers and developers to protect the environment, conserve its flora and fauna and preserve its rich Caribbean history.

A quick tip to potential visitors of Tobago which we will reveal here is to make sure and visit one of the island’s best kept secret…No-Man’s Land. Best reached by boat, this natural occuring spit has some of the islands best bathing and fun snorkling. See more about Tobago in our latest Caribbean Insiders Guide 2011 booklet.
