| Tobago is slowly being recognized as
one of the Caribbean's best dive spots, still uncrowded and unspoiled, with
excellent visibility (regularly 120 ft. and 70 to 90 being considered
average), plenty of variety and challenge, and unsurpassed marine life.
The diving is more suited to those with some experience. With most
dives, you will drift effortlessly with the current so go with the flow and enjoy
the ride. |
|
| The reefs of Tobago are incredibly
well-endowed with coral growth thanks to the Equatorial Current from the
Atlantic, the Guyana Current, and the flood waters of Venezuela's Orinoco
River bringing a rich payload of plankton and micro-organisms. Every
known species of hard coral and most of the soft coral flourish including the
world's largest recorded Brain Coral. The fish population is also
diverse with everything from tiny reef jewels such as Damsel Fish, Queen
Angels, Rock Beauties, Rainbow Runners, Tarpon, Black Grouper,
Cubera Snappers to eels, turtles, sharks
(including the bus-size whale sharks), and Mantas. |

prioques, the traditional
fisherman's craft. Some of the best diving is to be found on the south
and west coast between Cove Point and Castara and between Charlotteville and
Speyside on the northeast coast. The most popular dive sites include
Flying Reef, the Shallows, the Mt. Irvine Wall offering good night diving, the
Sisters, Arnos Vale, London Bridge, Cathedral, Batteaux Reef, Angel Reef,
Bookends, Japanese Gardens and Blackjack Hole, and St. Giles
Islands. |
