Caribbean holidays have become a mainstay in the British holidaymaker’s repertoire, but there are still places in the Caribbean that offer an untouched essence of the classic one-with-nature island lifestyle.
Turtle Beach by Rex Resorts has caught our eye as one such destination, combining wonderful all-inclusive holidays with Tobago’s long-standing connection to the natural world. One-of-a-kind holidays define Turtle Beach by Rex Resorts, and even Caribbean connoisseurs will find something fresh and exciting tucked away on this peaceful Tobago beachfront.
“There’s nothing more memorable than watching a Giant Leatherback Turtle heaving its way up the broad sandy beach fronting the hotel.”
Turtles of Tobago
Tobago has earned a reputation as a tropical sanctuary for a rich variety of bird and marine life, but its natural centrepiece is its affinity with turtles. Turtle Beach is aptly named for the generations of Giant Leatherback Turtles that return year-after-year. There’s nothing more memorable than watching a Giant Leatherback Turtle heaving its way up the broad sandy beach fronting the hotel to dig a nest, laying up to 90 billiard-ball sized eggs. It’s not uncommon to see a crowd of holidaymakers standing silently in an arc, sometimes just in their nightwear, anticipating the imminent arrival of the turtles. This night-time phenomenon only occurs January to September, most commonly in March and June, and the hatchlings will waddle their way to sea about two months later. Caribbean holidays often come with a vast catalogue of special highlights, but few share the connection to nature felt at Turtle Beach by Rex Resorts.
The Endless Ocean
Tobago’s seafront feels ever-present, with the tang of the sea flavouring the air and the food. Experiencing the ocean is an integral part of experiencing Tobago, and likewise the sea is vital to Turtle Beach by Rex Resorts. Tobago Reef Masters are based on-site at the hotel, and its owner, Shawn Robinson, has spent 20 years exploring the stunningly beautiful underwater world of Tobago, introducing its secrets to the island’s holidaymakers. Opalescent sealife and a collage of colourful corals make the underwater worlds of Tobago a spectacle that needs to be seen first-hand, and Tobago Reef Masters provides a collection of PADI Diving Courses at local dives sites. Thoughts of the ocean even trickled into the design of Turtle Beach by Rex Resorts, where all rooms face the sea. You wake up every morning to the soundtrack of the ocean, and life rarely gets better than that.
