Top 7 Hidden Gems Things to do in Tobago, Trinidad and Tobago
The smaller half of Trinidad and Tobago, the 116-square mile island is a top eco-tourism destination. Its rainforest has been protected since 1776. Kayak through mangrove swamps, mountain bike testing trails in the island's northeast, drift dive with manta rays and sharks, hike the Rainforest Reserve or take in the distinctive Tobago pursuits of goat and crab racing. Cars, taxis and "maxi taxi" minibuses make it easy to get around the island. Carnival sees this exuberant island at its most extroverted.

Excellent guidance and instruction makes it possible for all riders to be at ease. After introducing the horses to our guests (at which point each rider chooses his/her 'team partner' horse), we take everyone through Buccoo Village, past the goat race track and through the wetland mangroves to the beach FOR A LONG BEACH RIDE to the END of Buccoo BAY where we then swim with the horses along the shore .

I had an awesome time yesterday evening with Veronkia, her husband and the lovely staff at Healing with Horses. It was a majestic experience that I will be sure to have again in the near future. I never rode a horse before and I felt so safe, excited and absolutely pleased with the experience. My 2 year old daughter will be visiting to take a ride soon. I recommend this for everyone.

4. Corbin Local Wildlife
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 160 reviews
Surrounded by gentle hills and valleys overlooking the sea at Hope Bay, and situated in 20 acres of beautiful forest, Corbin Local Wildlife is a hidden gem. Plentiful fruit trees and flowers attract all kinds of native wildlife - plantain, sugarcane, mango trees and wild heliconia are abundant, to name but a few. Wild caiman sunbathe on the banks of the park's lily ponds, sally painters dash along the many trails and agoutis hop through the bushes. The park is a treasure-trove for birdwatchers - attracting hummingbirds, manakins, herons, mot-mots and jacamars. In addition to the wild animals, the park houses many rescued and threatened species. It provides a protected area, with diverse habitats, essential for the preservation of Tobago's native creatures. This safe environment, away from hunters, allows animals to breed and babies to be released into the forest when they are ready - protecting the natural wildlife which is under threat on the island. Come and explore the forest trails and learn about Tobago's wildlife. Call Roy Corbin to arrange a visit 00 1 (868) 327-4182. APPOINTMENTS ARE ESSENTIAL. If you don't ring to let us know you are coming there might be no-one there to show you around.

We phoned on arrival after not realising a booking was required; rather than turn us away Mr Corbin left his lunch to personally show us around. We saw some amazing animals including Agouti, Tattoo (9 Banded Armadillo), Red Squirrels, Possum and the highlight for us an Ocelot. At the centre they are caring for injured and unwanted animals, some of which are released back into the wild once recovered from injuries or reaching maturity. They are also educating people on conservation. Definitely worth a visit to get up close to native wildlife & learn more about animals from T & T.
5. Pirate's Bay
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 129 reviews
Although one of Tobago's more pristine and less crowded beaches, Pirate's Bay has the rougher waters typical of most northeastern beaches on the island.
Reviewed By baghm - Springfield, United States
Long treck uphill if you're walking, but a short drive up a not good track by car. The views are worth it, before you even get to the steps and path. Beach had a few people there, but not many! Lots of sailboats in the harbor, and we watched those with dingy's coming into Charlottesville. Wonderful place, and worth the drive. Odd, though, that there is a fire hydrant in the middle of nowhere. There is a small turn around for cars, but be cautious!
6. Englishman's Bay

A mysteriously uncrowded beach that is great for swimming and snorkeling.
Reviewed By DavidjGU26 - Grayshott, United Kingdom
We returned to Englishman's Bay after 10 years, and it didn't disappoint. The idyllic picture of a Caribbean bay beach, and very few people. A few more than last time, but still peaceful and beautiful. We spent several hours, and enjoyed a local lunch, while avoiding a sharp shower. We swam in the sea, and enjoyed watching pelicans fishing for more than an hour. The drive up from Crown Point in the south was worth the effort, occasionally exciting on the road, including getting slightly lost a couple of times. Road signs and direction indicators are a rarity on Tobago. Be adventurous and go to Englishman's Bay!
7. Argyle Waterfall

A 20 minute easy hike to the waterfalls. I suggest you go in sneakers with good grip and with the Waterfall tour guide (Tony). If you are adventureous, you can hike further up the falls but advise that you do that in groups with more than 5 persons. Very peaceful and serene.
