Tobago is our Caribbean paradise for the 32nd week of the year.
During this week our family sailing cruise will concentrate on the Tobago which is an ideal location for a vacation adventure. Tobago is one of the less developed and less commercialized Caribbean islands and it is part of a combined Trinidad and Tobago government. The beaches we visit are some of the most beautiful in the world and the Buccoo Reef has some of the best snorkeling and diving. We will pick you up at the beach at Crown Point just north of the airport on Sunday afternoon near 11.1566400,-60.84114667 at the beach in front of Manta Dive Center. There are connecting flights from Trinidad and some direct from the USA. We will end the week at Man-o-War bay. You will need a taxi back to the Crown Point airport Sunday morning. Since we stay here two weeks there is no passage necessary at the end of the week.
