Tobago Cays Yacht Charters

A yacht charter in Tobago Cays offers amazing snorkeling, an abundance of sea life, and close encounters with sea turtles, along with stunning sandy beaches.

Tobago Cays are a group of four small uninhabited islands surrounded by an extensive Horseshoe Reef that acts as a barrier from the sea.  A fifth island lies just outside the reef.  The colors reflected by the shallow water and the reef are simply spectacular.

Tobago Cays were declared a wildlife reserve by the St. Vincent and the Grenadines government in 2006 and the islands are one of the most unspoiled natural marine areas in the world.

The islands are the desired location for diving yacht charters – Tobago Cays’ Horseshoe Reef is studded with lively sponges, iridescent waters, and colorful schools of fish – making it the perfect place to anchor your yacht, jump in the Caribbean Sea and go snorkeling or diving.

Tobago Keys Yacht Charters – Things to See & Do

Here are some of the top sites to experience during your next yacht charter to Tobago Keys:

Baradel
One of the many islands of the Tobago Cays, Baradel has become regarded for its opportunities for turtle-watching. With its soft, golden sand, translucent waters and laid-back, island feel, Baradel is also one of the Caribbean’s best places for snorkeling and diving.

Horseshoe Reef
Filled with vibrant coral reefs, luminous marine life, green turtles and calm waters, Horseshoe Reef – which takes up four kilometers of the Tobago Cays – is a popular place for snorkeling and sailing. Hop on a small boat, sail through its emerald bays and dive in; rumor has it, you might even see nurse sharks and stingrays zooming past.

Jamesby Island
Floating seemingly aimlessly amongst the islands of the Tobago Cays, Jamesby Island is one of the most photographed islets in the Caribbean. Known for its sparse palm trees, steep cliffs, calm shores and enchanting beauty, this wedge-shaped locale has small, but colorful beaches praised for their laid-back vibes and familiar charms.
