Tobago, the Diver’s Himalayas
Tobago is to divers what the Himalayas are to mountaineers. For a small island, it offers 54 established dive sites which range in varying levels of difficulty for novices to experienced divers. Wreck diving is a popular sport. Tobago has 3 wrecks around its shores. One of the most popular is the wreck of the Maverick Ferry which used to ply between Trinidad and Tobago. This 350 feet long wreck lies 30 meters below the surface off Rocky Point, Mt. Irvine. It was intentionally sunk for the benefit of divers. The wreck is a veritable wonderland for divers because of the plethora of exotic marine life that has made the wreck home.
Tobago dive sites extend along the coastline from Columbus Point to Pedro Point. Tobago has an abundance of dive schools where one can learn to dive under the supervision of experienced dive instructors. Diving offers arguably one of the most exhilarating experiences one could have. It’s the same adrenalin rush a mountaineer experiences when laboring upward in a oxygen deprived atmosphere.
