Turtle
Watching : (Overnight) A most humbling experience,
an act of nature unchanged by time. Armed with only
a flashlight you can watch the exotic leatherback
turtle unrelenting in her quest to act on the most
basic instinct instllied within her, when she was
deposited on the very same beach to ensure the existence
of the next generation of the leatherback turtle.
An event that would leave you in awe as nature and
evolution come together. This primeval ritual generally
takes place most between May to August. |

Tobago - the sister isle: (All Day) Tobago unlike Trinidad
seems to be untouched by the soiled hands of man.
Commonly referred to as the world's best kept secret,
Tobago is the more serene, scenic and picturesque
of both islands with it's exotic reefs, rich flora
and fauna, and a perfect blend of people living in
harmony with nature. A 20-minute trip by air to Tobago
lands you at Crown Point airport. We will visit the
city of Scarborough, the Fort, Botanical Gardens,
Store Bay - where there is a variety of Tobagonian
cuisine to be sampled, and a beautiful beach, Pigeon
Point - another heavenly stretch of white sand and
blue sea. The Mt. Irvine Golf Course is available
