120 TOBAGO CAYS MARINE PARK INS& UTS Tobago Cays Swimming with the Turtles in Baradal Turtle Sanctuary This is a protected area, designated by marker buoys, where snorkelers can observe green and hawksbill turtles foraging freely. Action! Action! - Petit Bateau One of the highlights of Petit Bateau is the natural beachside aquarium where you can feed the sting rays and puffer fish. With shady areas and picnic tables, Petit Bateau provides the perfect picnic spot! A good selection of freshly cooked food is served all day but most guests prefer to dine at night under the stars. This island also has a good hilltop lookout point with a magnificent panoramic view of the southern Grenadines. The short hike up may reveal a variety of tropical flora, including bromeliads; as well as fauna such as iguanas, hermit crabs and birds. Protected! As of December 1st, 2019 it is illegal to harvest parrotfish or conduct “shark fin fishing” in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Shark fin fishing or shark finning isn’t known to occur in these waters but the legislation is pro-active. Petit Tabac Ahoy This isolated beach and wild tropical garden was the location for the desert island scene in “Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl”. It is the most adventurous cay to visit. It’s fun to stand on the end of the sand spit where the waves collide and splash up high. Catholic Island Bird Sanctuary Various sea-bird nesting and roosting colonies can be observed from a boat, ideally using binoculars or telescope. Pelican, Brown Booby, Magnificent Frigatebird along with several various terns and gulls. The boat taxis can transport you there.
