Guide to Dive Sites

Tobago is the main diving destination, with sites off Speyside, Little Tobago, Crown Point and the Caribbean coast. Currents around Tobago can be strong, so many dives are drift dives, planned and led by local dive operators. Visibility and conditions change with the season and the weather.

Some sites sit inside protected areas with their own rules. In the Buccoo Reef Marine Park, for example, fishing of any kind is prohibited and visitors need a valid access permit.
