When sailing the Windward Islands, make sure that you go down to the Tobago Cays. Whether you are on a day trip with a group of tourists, you have to stop and see the Cays. Some of the best snorkeling is in the Cays. The water and reef colors range from a gold, brown, blue, turquoise and green. Set your anchor west of Petit Rameau and make sure that you anchor both bow and stern. There are strong currents in the cut between Petit Rameau and Petit Bateau.
Since it is a National Park, you must rely on your own provisioning or the local islanders will also come by with fresh fish and breads. There is also beach BBQ's. But remember, there are not any restaurants! Many local boat vendors will also sell T-shirts, ice, and jewelry. To go diving, contact Grenadines Dive, as they will come by your vessel and pick you up. So when on a Caribbean Sailboat cruise or your chartered boat, a stop in the Tobago Cays is a must!
