Trinidad is the big sister island to much smaller Tobago but both islands are among the best destinations in the Caribbean for eco-tourism. The islands are the southernmost islands of the Lesser Antilles chain, just off the coast of VenezuelaTobago is the better choice for textbook Caribbean beaches. Hotels in Tobago are more conventional and lend themselves better to flop and drop holidays. Trinidad, although beach-rich, offers a greater choice of things to see and do. It’s impossible to get a full picture of the republic on a holiday to Trinidad and Tobago without visiting both islands and a regular plane and ferry service makes this easily possible even on short holidays.
