Anchorages on Tobago's Caribbean Coast
From Crown Point (airport, customs, crab & dumplings) through pristine Castara and Englishman's Bay to Charlotteville at the northeast tip. South of the hurricane belt — year-round sailing on the sheltered Caribbean leeward coast.
Buccoo Reef MPA — Absolutely No Anchoring
Buccoo Reef is a Marine Protected Area — anchoring on or near the reef is a criminal offence under T&T environmental law. Access by licensed glass-bottom boat tours from Buccoo village only. Leatherback turtle nesting occurs on many Tobago beaches March–August — no lights or beach activity at night during nesting season. Customs at Crown Point or Scarborough on arrival. Typical Caribbean tidal range 0.3–0.5m on Tobago's open coasts (much less than Trinidad's Gulf of Paria).
