Tobago Heaven - Booked a trip to Buccoo Reef/Nylon Pool/No Man's Land via Tobago Tours with Keiron. We asked for something less 'party-ish' and he put us on a boat named Three Try. The entire experience was FANTASTIC. We saw alot of fish and learnt alot about the coral varieties. The waters of Nylon Pool were perfect...warm and not deep at all. The boat ride was more mellow as compared to the ones around us (the loud music coming from the other boats were not peaceful). The boat tour itself cost $100 TTD. I highly recommend this tour and booking with Tobago Tours with Keiron (he was fun, warm and professional). He can be found on Instagram and I believe on TikTok.

Such a fun experience - First off, our guide, Edith, was outstanding! She is fun and charismatic and had all kinds of tips for us - she treated us like royalty - I believe we have a new friend in Tobago!
Our boat captain, Michael,, was so much fun! We even tried snorkeling for the first time - it was a bit of a challenge as the water was a bit busy but we did it and are anxious to give it a go again.

I did bring a speaker and sat up top, otherwise no music, ha! The boat is smaller than I expected but was just perfect size for the trip. If you get sea sickness, sit up top!

Great Day - Edith was Great! Roger was our driver and he was on time and did a good job getting us to the beach and back to the ship.
The weather was great and we enjoyed the snorkeling and the nylon pool!
We stopped at “No Mans Land” and had wonderful local cuisine.
Would ask for Edith every excursion!

Buccoo Reef and Nylon Pool - Great trip to Buccoo Reef and Nylon Pool. Snorkeling at the reef was definitely for experienced swimmers as there were large waves and strong current. The reef is beautiful and the view from the boat was amazing. Nylon pool was so relaxing. A bit of confusion with our ride back to the ship, trouble finding our driver so we taxied back to the ship.

Could be better - Good tour for the ones that do not enjoy much the water and want to see the reef and sea life. But not for swimmers or adventurous people.
Would be good to allow people to snorkel on the reef.
Time at the lagoon is short.
Boat should have microphone and speaker on the upper side. If you are there, you do not hear anything the guide says.

Tobago s@cked. - We are doing the southern cruise with Royal Caribbean. Barbados was fine. Trinidad was cool. Tobago is the worst stop by far on the cruise. I don't like aggressive people cutting me off from my wife to pitch their business. I'm not a small man, nor a patient man when protecting my wife. I immediately cut in front of her and talked him back into a wall. He got the message. A crowd of local people came to his aid then things settled down. I reminded them that they all represent the island and when they drive my dollars away, it will eventually lead all dollars away. I think that they got it. We turned around and spent the day drinking on the boat and enjoying each others company. 3 thumbs down for Tobago.
