Leeward
Side Beaches
This post covers beaches located between the villages of Buccoo
and Arnos Vale.
The drive along the coastline bordering
the Caribbean sea is a serene and enjoyable as they come
Following on from Pigeon Point and No Man’s
Land, Buccoo Beach is a long narrow beach protected that is protected by the Buccoo Reef.
There are basic beach facilities including
a small bar and toilet facilities
This beach is not heavily populated as
there are more famous beaches nearby that attract more beach goers
Grange Bay
This beach is known by the locals as The Wall, and is just off
the road after the famous Mount Irvine Golf Course.
Grange Beach is great for swimming and is a popular
spot with surfers.
Back Bay
Back Bay is a quiet secluded beach, whose access involves
trekking down a cliff.
There is even a little pool made by nature where water flows in and out with the tide.
While this is a beautiful beach it is quite secluded
and lonely.
May want to go there in a large group to maintain
ones safety
The Great Courland Bay
Access to this beach can be had
from any of the side streets in the Black Rock Village
The bay is exposed the full
elements of the north coast.
Stone Haven Bay
Stone Haven Bay is an attractive coarse sand beach bordering Le Grand Courlan
Spa Resort and the Grafton Beach
Resort.
The beach (north) offers good snorkelling and is one
of the beaches in Tobago where the endangered giant Leatherback turtle comes
ashore between March and August to lay their eggs.
Turtle Beach
Turtle Beach is a long sandy,
sloping beach famous as a nesting site for giant leatherback turtles
(March-August).
The beach is
located close to the Turtle Beach Hotel, which borders
the beach
The
hotel organizes viewing of the turtles during their nesting periods (March –August)
The beach is
adjacent to an area that has thick tree cover that provides shade and seating
facility for family limes
You have to show me where the entrance to Back Bay is. As far as I know it is near to the entrance of Glen Eagles Drive
