Tobago - The Place for Your Vacation Holiday - Paradise

Tobago

Tobago has a land area of 300km² (116miles²), and is approximately 42km (26 miles) long and 11km (7 miles) wide. The population is about 51,000, approximately 17,500 of which live in the capital, Scarborough. The climate is tropical, and the islands lie just south of the Atlantic hurricane belt. It was designated as a protected crown reserve on April 17 1776 following representations by Soame Jenyns, a UK MP, who was responsible for development in Tobago. It has remained a protected reserve ever since.

This forested area has a great biodiversity including many species of birds, mammals, frog and (non-poisonous) snakes. It is also one of the most approachable areas of rain-forest since it is relatively small and there are government appointed guides at various locations, who charge very reasonable rates.

The southern area of the island, from Scarborough southwards, is an area called the lowlands. This is a more commercial area of Tobago, and is more dedicated to housing and tourist related activities. This land is particularly flat, although the areas around Buccoo and Bon Accord are in close proximity to the lagoon and swamp land, and are so more affected by high water levels and mosquitoes.

Telephone and Internet Access

The international dialing code for Tobago is 1-868 followed by the seven digit telephone number. Mobile phones that run on various network will work in Tobago but the signal strength varies throughout the Island. Internet access has improved and there are a number of internet cafes sprung up over the last 2 to 3 years.

Driving

There are plenty of car rental companies on the island, just be sure to choose wisely, both in terms of quality of vehicle and cover on insurance. Driving is on the left in Tobago, the same as in England, but the opposite to most of the rest of the world. Unfortunately, the driving skills of the locals leave a lot to be desired, as you will find some drivers crawl along talking to all their friends as they drive. The authorities are just about to implement a law to stop driver using their mobile phones while at the wheel, that can only help. This coupled with the odd dog, cow and goat crossing the road, people stopping every ten feet to pick up/drop off, and dodging the pot-holes, makes for interesting driving! When driving and discovering the Island you will experience some of the most spectacular scenic routes but you need to keep your eye on the road, as the road is pot-holed and bends and turns at quite alarming angles. But it is journey worth doing, just take your time, be careful, and enjoy it!

The International Airport

Tobago's International airport is Crown Point, on the southernmost tip of the island. It's a fairly small airport in terms of those seen in Europe and the US, but generally quite efficient. When entering the country, once all necessary immigration and baggage collection has been done, you will be greeted by a wall of taxi drivers, hotel porters and families looking for incoming relations. Most of the hotels arrange a 'meet and greet' at this point and will use either cars or buses to take you to your hotel. If, on the other hand, you have made no prior arrangements, then there are plenty of taxi drivers available, all ready and willing to help.

Crime

Tobago is virtually the opposite of Trinidad, and at times it's hard to believe the two islands share a common flag. Trinidad newspapers constantly tell shocking stories of theft, murder, abduction and all kinds of other crimes, whereas Tobago is proud of its safe and secure status. Don't get me wrong, it may not be the safest places on the planet, but you can feel secure walking around at night, for as long as you travel around sensibly. Try not to walk around with large amounts of cash, showing off huge amounts of jewelery, and electronic gadgets. If you are sensibly careful, then you should have no problems.

Accommodation

Tobago has a good mix of types of accommodation from small guest house and apartments, hotels, tourist resorts, to luxury villas. Some of the hotels offer an all inclusive package which appear to be popular and cost effective, for a more exclusive dream holiday a lot of visitors book a luxury villa with panoramic sea views, your own private swimming pools and just to make it more relaxing, daily maid service is included in the price.

There's so much to do

For those of you wishing for a active holiday then there are many activities available such as Golf, Fishing, Cycling, Horse Riding, Water sports and more.

Sailing.

Tobago is a great sailing ground with lots of bays to make anchor and explore the other parts of the Island. You and Charter day sails or Stay & Sail Packages and take a trip further a field.

Cycling

Bicycles are a good way of seeing the island and can be rented locally. There is a Cycling Classic Festival in September, when cars make way for the hordes of cyclists from all around the world. Both on and off-road cycling is plentiful.

Water sports

Boat tours are one of the most popular ways to explore the Island. Several operators work the waters, offering full day trips with a barbeque lunch or sunset trips. Sailing is very popular and half day or full day trips can be arranged on an array of sailing boats from 50 foot yachts to hobby cats.

For those how just like a relaxing boat trip then the glass bottom boats are for you. Explore the underwater world through the crystal clear Caribbean waters. Jet skis are available for hirer and for those more adventurous, then you need to try kite surfing.

Horse Riding

Those who prefer a slower, earth-bound tour can go horse trekking including beach ride and swim packages with tuition.

Golf

There are two excellent pristine courses on the island. Tobago Plantations on wind-blown Atlantic fifteen and Mount Irvine on the Caribbean side.

Scuba Diving & Snorkeling

Tobago is one of the best scuba diving sports in the south-eastern Caribbean, yet it has relatively few divers visiting its pristine coral reefs, volcanic formations and marine wrecks.

The aquamarine seas around Tobago are home to 300 species of south

Atlantic coral and a variety of spectacular multicolored fish, including the neon orange- and - blue parrot fish, the black- and- yellow- striped sergeant majors and every species of angel fish, not to mention such larger species such whales, stingrays, sharks, dolphins, turtles, squid, and an enormous number of manta rays.

There are a number of certified scuba diving operators.

Sport Fishing

Chartering a sport fishing boat is exciting, rich picking of Marlin, sale fish, Tuna and Dolphin (not flipper!) are caught all year round.

Wildlife

The tourist board holds a list of well-established, trained guides, offering hiking and wildlife tours. There are over 430 different species of birds, 620 different species of butterflies, 2300 different shrubs and plants, 700 of them orchids.

There are 100 different mammals including a huge variety of bats, and 70 different reptiles. It's little wonder that some of the country's most regular visitors are international film-makers shooting key sequences for wildlife documentaries, like David Attenborough's, The Trials of Life.

Should you want any further information on the Paradise Island of Tobago? Then please do not hesitate in contacting the author of this article as I am now living and enjoying Tobago every day and would like to help.

Oceania Properties: Own a Piece of Paradise

The largest of the 365 mostly uninhabited islands of the 120 mile Exuma Archipelago, Great Exuma stretches effortlessly across the Tropic of Cancer about 300 miles off the South Florida coast, and 130 miles southeast of Nassau which is the capital of The Bahamas. The magnificently tropical Exumas average a balmy temperature of 26 degrees Celsius or 79 degrees Fahrenheit daily.



This summer was my day of discovery in which I had the opportunity to visit the lifestyle opportunity of this premiere destination. Much to my pleasure I was graciously extended a tour of the spectacular Exuma by local developer and resident of thirty years, Howard Obront, along with his trusted and loyal comrade Shelton "Gulf " Morley. As a man of all seasons, Gulf was a ton of fun to have around as a tour guide, boat captain and story teller.



Having had his hand in the development of the well known February Point, Obront is now venturing on in the latest gated community known as Oceania Heights.



Keeping in touch with the culture and tranquillity of the island, Exuma has regulated that no more than 30% of the island may be developed, protecting the islands purity and well-preserved condition for the future. Still, absolutely everything you would need is at your fingertips. I certainly couldn't think of anything further I would need and the absence of fast food chains unquestionably couldn't harm anyone. "If you want nothing, you have it. If you want to find something you can," says Obront knowingly as he sits to share with me his past, his future and his visions for the island and for Oceania Properties. His passion and inviting personality are enough to open my mind to the possibilities of what this seventh heaven has to offer.



Well respected among the population of Exuma, Howard Obront has a vast knowledge of the comings and goings of the island. Celebrities such as Michael Jordan, Oprah Winfrey, and even Bill Gates all have properties within the area. Johnny Depp is no stranger, having stayed in one of the Oceania Properties villas while filming 'Pirates of the Caribbean 3'. Even on my brief escape, a fellow traveller was sure to have sighted Reese Witherspoon enjoying the seclusion with her family. For celebrities who experience the constant pressure of the paparazzi, as well as the many other stresses that accompany their careers, the islands are a haven allowing much needed tranquility in their lives.



Doctors are found to be congregating rapidly to Exuma as well. In fact, although the development is still in its early stages, at last count, all six of the existing Luxury Hill Top Villas, with breathtaking panoramic ocean views, were found to be owned by physicians. Presently, six more magnificent Custom Estate Villas are being built - these too are for physicians. Also in a high-stress career, doctors from near and far seem to have been let in on the secret of the peace and relaxation found in Exuma. Renowned Miami cardiologist and author of 'The Reality Diet, Fighting Fat With Fibre', Dr. Steven A. Schnur of Mount Sinai Medical Center, spends his valued free time relaxing with his wife and two children at Oceania Heights. "People positioning themselves here are among the friendliest and most neighbourly in the world and have chosen Exuma as the ideal place for their second home and eventual retirement," states Obront with a smile on his face that translates into an unspoken confidence in the luxurious serenity that is Exuma. Having a corporate or personal address in the gated community of Oceania Heights, in The Bahamas, not only provides opportunities to live an exclusive island lifestyle with world class amenities but it also provides the opportunity for generating tax-free income through appreciating property as well as the rental pool program. As many investors are aware, real restate is a tangible asset, which appreciates in value as you enjoy all the benefits of a vacation home. The July issue of 'The Bahamas Investor' states that on one of the islands the appreciation of condo values is approximately $300,000.00 from start date, and they haven't even been completed yet. One year ago a canal lot on Paradise Island sold for $1.5 million and is now selling for $2.2 million, an amazing $700,000.00 profit in one year. With The Bahamas tourist industry enjoying constant, sustained growth with more sophisticated resorts, more facilities and services, more and more opportunities for investment are showing up, giving further reason to investigate the Islands' potential for investment.



In the premiere issue of Exuma Visitors Guide, Glenn S. Ferguson writes, "In the last five years, there has been a dramatic growth in real estate investment and development. The crowning jewel is the $100 million Emerald Bay development premier Four Seasons Resort with 183 rooms and a Greg Norman designed golf course. This development has resulted in real estate investment prices rising between 45%-60% per year but you must act quickly to ensure the best investment returns."



As the world's premier tax haven, The Bahamas offers the perfect investment opportunity as there are no personal, corporate, income, capital gains, estate, gift or inheritance taxes. Easy access to major world markets, political stability, security and economic opportunities are all a reality of business in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas.



Since 1977, the Bahamian dollar has been linked 1 to 1 with the U.S dollar and both are used interchangeably throughout the island. In fact, I found that anytime I was to pay with Bahamian currency I was usually given American currency as change.



Nassau, capital of The Bahamas, is a leading international offshore banking center with over 400 banks. Second in the world only to London in the number of financial institutions it holds, Nassau is renowned for its laws guaranteeing banking confidentiality. The Bahamas is trusted by individuals and corporations from all over the world. Of the some 15,000 companies registered in The Bahamas over 90% are foreign. Money, in The Bahamas, is both accessible and discreet.



The Bahamas has been named "the best financial centre in the western hemisphere," by the global magazine, The Banker, Minister of Financial Services and Investments the Hon. Allyson Maynard Gibson revealed in February of 2006. Additionally, "Other than the United States of America and Canada, we have the highest standard of living in the hemisphere," states the Hon. Perry G. Christie, Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas.



Now voted one of the top three international destinations in the world by The Washington Post, the island of Great Exuma, Bahamas is attracting attention not only from international media, but major resort developers, such as Four Seasons Resort at Emerald Bay. Still, the only sounds you will hear walking around Oceania Heights are the singing birds, the waves lapping on the shore and the gentle breezes rustling through the palm trees. This paradise within a paradise truly captures the elegance of luxury living all the while maintaining an exclusivity that is intangible.



With all the amenities of a first class resort, Oceania Heights offers a welcome escape from the hectic pace of everyday life, while offering all of the conveniences of home. Rental and real estate contact Alexandria "Zandy" Turtle exceeded our expectations making sure our villa was stocked with fresh fruit, drinks and flowers. It was wonderful! As I wandered out the French doors of my bedroom onto the secluded terrace of my villa, I became conscious of the luxurious privacy and the unsurpassed ocean view. The comfort of such peace and quiet I found to be priceless.



When evening came we dined in beautiful locations such as The Four Seasons or the ever popular Coconut Cove, which offered a beautiful view of the beach, swim up bar and the sun setting on the Atlantic Ocean. Coconut Cove owner Pam was more than hospitable offering conventional Bahamian fare such as blackened grouper or roasted lamb as well as traditional American lobster, pizza and 'cowboy' steak. Without hesitation I would have to recommend the shrimp cocktail, if nothing else.



"The deep sea fishing is great here," tells Howard Obront's brother and Miami trial attorney, Curt Obront, who joined us one evening for dinner. A frequent visitor of Exuma, Curt enjoys his time spear fishing on the reefs for his lobster dinner or bone fishing on one of the many flats nearby. If you like your seafood fresh, this would be the way to get it. However, if you aren't adventurous enough to catch it on your own, you can watch your fresh conch salad being prepared along the shore of Stocking Island. This was an experience in itself for me.



Beyond the exquisite dining and secluded beaches, Oceania Properties offers a fabulous tennis club with well lit courts to allow for play at any time of day or night. As well, the state of the art fitness centre will help you stay on track with your training and self-care regimen. The front gates of Oceania Properties, operated by courteous security staff, maintain a feeling of privacy and security although you can rest easy knowing that this island maintains a zero percent crime rate. Oceania Heights guests and residents also enjoy special access to the Greg Norman designed golf course and full-service spa facility at the Four Seasons Resort. From daily housekeeping services to 24 hour security for peace of mind, Oceania Properties "offers everything including things you'd forget to ask for," says Obront.



Surrounded by culture, beauty and genuine hospitality, the island seemed to radiate certain "energy". When the time came to head home I could see why so many are choosing to make Oceania Heights their home away from home.



It has been noted that when Christopher Columbus landed on the island years ago he was taken by the friendly smiles and accommodating people. Even today, this way of life on Exuma remains constant. With visions of rolling hills and spectacular panoramic views tucked safely away in my memory I look forward to my return when I can relive those memories.



For profit or pleasure, many of the worlds leading professionals have chosen to invest in this tax free island paradise and once you have been there, even for a moment, it is exceedingly clear why.
