Tobago Local legend has it that Tobago was the setting for Robinson Crusoe, and it certainly has its fair share of deserted white sand beaches, with an interior of wild tropical rainforest, home to some of the rarest exotic birds in the world. The most southerly of the chain of Caribbean islands, just a few miles from the coast of South America, Tobago enjoys a year round tropical climate which brings holidaymakers looking for a real desert island getaway experience. Untamed and rugged on the one hand, the other face of Tobago is of sophisticated resorts and villas with excellent diving and snorkelling amongst the plethora of shipwrecks left by the marauding pirates of the past. The lifestyle is slow and relaxed, the local people are charming, the restaurants are of international standard, while the resorts are local and friendly or exclusive and luxurious.
