Tobago's Absolute Essentials

Tobago features a diverse landscape ranging from the UNESCO-listed Main Ridge Forest Reserve, the oldest protected rainforest in the Western Hemisphere, to the iconic thatched-roof jetty at Pigeon Point Heritage Park. Historical sites include the 18th-century Fort King George and the ruins of the Arnos Vale sugar plantation. For outdoor activities, the island offers snorkeling at Angel Reef, hiking to the three-tiered Argyle Waterfalls, and two championship golf courses. Pirates Bay provides a secluded coastal viewpoint, while the Scarborough Lighthouse remains an active navigational aid overlooking the capital.
