Little Tobago is a small protected island off Tobago’s northeast coast and one of the region’s best-known seabird sanctuaries.
Why birders go
Clifftop viewpoints can reveal nesting and soaring seabirds, while the boat ride itself may offer views into clear coastal water. Exact species and numbers vary by season.
How to visit
Travel by established local boat operator from the Speyside area and follow guide instructions on the island. Trails can be steep and exposed.
Responsible viewing
- Stay on paths.
- Keep distance from nests.
- Never feed birds.
- Keep noise low near colonies.
