Englishman's Bay

Englishman's Bay is a secluded beach on the leeward coast of Tobago, between Castara and Parlatuvier. Although the bay does not draw the large numbers of beachgoers that Tobago's western beaches do, it is considered of the island's most beautiful. The beach itself is a classic crescent shape, capped by two heavily forested headlands descending from Tobago's Main Ridge. The sand starts immediately after the forest ends and is of a shallow to medium gradient and somewhat coarse grain.

The beach itself does not change size drastically at high or low tides, due to the gradient. There is pretty heavy beach break. Owing to the number of waves the beach does not boast magnificent snorkeling. As of 2018, there is only one small restaurant/shop and a single stall unisex bathroom. (Full article...)
