Englishman’s Bay Beach

Englishman's Bay is a quiet beach on Tobago's leeward coast, between Castara and Parlatuvier. Although the bay attracts fewer beachgoers than Tobago's western beaches, it is regarded as one of the most beautiful on the island. The beach is a classic crescent shape, topped by two heavily forested headlands that descend from Tobago's Main Ridge. The sand begins immediately after the forest and has a shallow to medium gradient and coarse grain. Because of the gradient, the beach's size changes little at high and low tides. There is a strong beach break. The beach does not have spectacular snorkeling due to the number of waves. There is one small restaurant/gift shop, Eula's, and a single-stall male and female bathroom as of 2018.

A freshwater stream flows from the rainforest framing the sheltered beach along this mile-long stretch of sand. Just offshore is an incredible coral reef teeming with kaleidoscopic marine life. Make sure to bring your snorkeling equipment with you.
