Tobago Tourist Attractions and Tobago Sightseeing
(Tobago, Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, TT)



There are many very notable tourist attractions on Tobago, regularly enticing holidaymakers from the neighbouring island of Trinidad. Stretching between the Bon Accord Lagoon and Pigeon Point, and famous throughout Trinidad and Tobago, Buccoo Reef is an incredible curving expanse of coral reef and really is the ultimate place in the Caribbean to enjoy an afternoon of snorkelling or scuba diving, with an endless choice of underwater attractions.

Cruises around the coastline of Tobago and other leading island attractions are extremely popular, and boats regularly fill up with tourists, eager to spot dolphins and enjoy the coastal scenery. For something quite different, the Arnos Vale Waterwheel deserves a visit and stands on the eastern side of Plymouth, where it offers a taster of the island's historic sugar cane industry.

Tobago Tourist Attractions: Rainbow Falls
Address: Goldsborough Bay Road / Windward Road, Goldsborough, Tobago, Trinidad and Tobago, TT
Tel: +1 868 675 7034
The Rainbow Falls is an extremely beautiful natural cascade of water, although this is certainly not one of the easiest attractions to reach. Those wishing to visit the Rainbow Falls should head along the Goldsborough Bay Road, where you will first encounter the old Cocoa House of Hugh and Shirley McKenna. From here, the waterfall is a 20-minute walk along a winding trail, which can be rather muddy at times. This is a very quiet and enchanting spot, and the falls are around 100 metres / 328 feet high, with water falling down a rocky route and splashing into the Goldsborough River beneath, with the mist often creating rainbows - hence the name. If it is a particularly hot day on Tobago, then what better place to cool down that the inviting river itself. A restaurant is conveniently close by, should you feel a little peckish.
