Finishing up itinerary, wheels up in 6 days!

Are there mooring balls and anything going on around the Tobago Islands? These look deserted but wondering if anyone has ever visited? I might head that way for a day to do some exploring around the islands when visited JVD.

Thanks.

No mooring balls, and I think a "no anchor" policy.

Unless they have been lost recently and not replaced there are two NPS mooring balls on the west side of Great Tobago.

Hi Harley,

I don't know if this will help, but you might try contacting Jost Van Dyke Scuba for more info.

It's a good snorkle and dive site. If diving take the North Ball. If your snorkeling either ball is fine. As long as the wind is the normal east wind and there is no North swell it's very calm.
