Nestled on Tobago’s leeward coast, Arnos Vale is a tranquil bay steeped in colonial history and natural charm. Originally part of the Arnos Vale Estate, this area was once a bustling 18th-century sugar plantation under British control. The estate played a vital role in Tobago’s agricultural development during the colonial era, and remnants of its past still echo through the surrounding landscape.
Today, Arnos Vale is beloved for its secluded beach, vibrant coral reef, and lush forested backdrop, making it a favourite for snorkelling, birdwatching, and peaceful escapes. The reef just offshore is one of Tobago’s most accessible, teeming with marine life and perfect for beginner snorkelers.
A short drive from Plymouth or Castara, this hidden gem invites you to step back in time, soak in Tobago’s beauty, and discover a slice of untouched Caribbean paradise.
