Warning: you may never want to leave…

Why Go?

If what you want is utter seclusion and perfect peace, then Tobago’s beautiful beaches are the perfect match.

Imagine unspoilt white sandy beaches cocooned by protected rainforests and discovering beautiful islands where it’s only you (and Hummingbirds) enjoying the famous Caribbean sunshine. Put simply, Tobago is paradise, and a little-known one at that. Because the stand-out reason you should add it to your bucket list is that no one else is there, meaning you can chill to the max (and choose any sunlounger you damn well like).

Five of the best off-the-beaten-track slices of paradise where you can relax, unwind and recharge without even trying.

Pigeon Point

Think glowing white sandy beaches with a cluster of shops and eating spots, Tobago’s legendary Pigeon Point is as breath-taking as it is relaxing. Make the most of what this calming coastline has to offer by sampling the famous crab and dumplings from one of the beach-side cabanas before taking in the sunset from the thatched-roof pier.

No Man’s Land

Located in the far south of the island lies a stretch of uninhabited white sand lapped by clear shallow water and colour-pop dragonflies. As one of Tobago’s most remote and unspoilt beaches, No Man’s Land is perfect for those looking to take relaxation to a whole new level.

Pirate’s Bay

For that archetypical deserted island vibe, look no further. The sparkling blue waters may be the ultimate snorkel and surfing playground but it’s just as ideal for sunbathing on the buttery soft sands and lapping up the famously warm Caribbean sunshine.

Turtle Beach

You’d think leatherback turtles and horse-rides through the surf would mean an army of beach lovers overruns Turtle Bay. But Tobago’s golden coastline is often empty, meaning you can unwind in peace and (a lot of) quiet.

This get-away-from-it-all secluded beach is the mini paradise you’ve always dreamed of discovering. Embodying the island’s signature rustic charm with a rainforest backdrop, Englishman’s Bay offers that Robinson-Crusoe-meets-luxury flare we all crave from a tropical getaway.
