This tiny twin island republic offers an enticing mix of cultural activities and eco adventure. Located just off the tip of Venezuela, lively Trinidad, the larger of the two, boasts energetic nightlife in modern capital Port-of-Spain. Driving on the North Coast Road reveals lush forest and breathtaking views. Tobago, two hours away by fast ferry, is comparatively serene. Azure seas contrast with pale pink sands and golden sunsets.

Great views of Tobago coast line! Is largest fortification in Tobago. Dated 1777, British, then captured by the French in 1781 and renamed Fort Castries. British reoccupied it again in 1793. Was damaged by the hurricane in 1847 (roof all buildings blown off). Among the ten (of the original 30) structures, can recognize the officer's mess (Georgian military arhitecture), the powder magazine (made with volcanic stone), the Bell shape water tank, commander's residence, military hospital, the prison and the cemetery. One mortar and cannons (eighteen, nine and six pounders) are on site between the inner and the outer Fort area. On the cannons can recognize the double-rose emblem if the Tudors and the GR mark. The Scarborough Museum collection is available to visitors and will give you a lot of details of Tobago History. Few modern structures have been built inside the fort complex: the more noticable is the lighthouse. FORT KING GEORGE IS PART OF EUROCHAMTT HISTORICAL ITINERARIES at LA TARTARUGA ITALIAN RESTAURANT, BUCCOO BAY.

This is along the way from the tar pit back towards PoS where you stop to take the boat on the swamp tour for the birds. You need about half an hour here. Key things to note - don't touch the flowers given this is a holy area within the initial gate, take off the shoes if you want to enter the temple, and bring some bread or crackers to feed the fish that come up to the shoreline to the right side of the temple (right side when facing it upon entering).

This landmark as it now stands is as a result of Government intervention. A once towering mound, "the Hill'" as it was commonly called was once a primary source for building material (gravel) in the South. Halting the removal of material and adding access roads has made this a popular spot for functions, family outings and just an opportunity to view the surrounding area from a vantage point. It's an experience that defies description but is worth living.
