With forests filled with mango, citrus and cocoa, you can find yourself in a luscious wildlife environment you will remember for years to come. Let Tobago show you its serene atmosphere for a Caribbean vacation you won't soon forget!

Tobago came under British rule in 1508, but would change hands 22 times before it would become British again in 1814. Named for the tobacco that was used by the Native Amerindian population that lived there, Tobago has had a more turbulent past than its sister island Trinidad, but both are now some of the wealthiest islands in the Caribbean.

The steel drum is the official instrument of Tobago and its sister island. At some point, locals figured out they could melt the drum down and produce a unique sound. From there, the steel drum and its unusual sound has become an integral part of the Caribbean lifestyle, but of Tobago and Trinidad in particular.

If you love to go boating and sailing, you can take 50-foot catamarans out off the coast of Tobago or see the snorkeling and scuba diving the island offers. If you love to go sea fishing, you can catch some of the most exciting sport fishing in the area, including tuna, marlin and more.
