PIGEON POINT BEACH
The thatch-roof hut at Pigeon Point must be the most photographed spot on the island. Lauded as the Tobago's best beach, Pigeon Point is located where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean Sea. The powdery sand and calm turquoise sea at this beach are different from most beaches of the island.
Pigeon Point has shady picnic gazebos, shower blocks, bars and restaurants for all visitors to the island to use. It is a great space to have a bath, relax, lime and even watch the sunset.

TOBAGO BLUE FOOD FESTIVAL
Dasheen and other root crops take centre stage in October, as the villages of Bloody Bay, L’Anse Fourmi, and Parlatuvier on the northeast coast pay homage to the versatility and utility of “blue food”.
What is blue food?
Some varieties of dasheen can turn blue or indigo when cooked, hence the term which now is used to describe all root crops, including sweet potato, cassava, and yam.
During the festival, all of the dasheen plant is used to prepare a range of items such as bread, cookies and sweets, ice-cream, etc. A culinary competition and cultural shows are also highlights of the festival.

BAGO CARNIVAL
Bago Carnival is colour, creativity, calypso, sweet pan, soca, and good creole food — but she is also striking natural backdrops, historical sites, and relaxing attractions. The Bago Carnival can boast less hassle on the streets and a more intimate experience.
The street theatre starts on Carnival Sunday with the Junior Carnival held in Roxborough. By far the biggest bands on the street on J’Ouvert morning are the Mud Mas bands, which continue to grow in popularity. It’s literally a sea of mud that slithers through the streets of downtown Scarborough from as early as three o’clock Carnival Monday morning. There is a definite freedom for revellers. You wear whatever you desire, as you’ll be covered head to toe in purified and treated mud.
Both the children’s bands and the adult bands parade on Carnival Monday and one can literally watch revellers cross the streets until well into the night. Carnival Tuesday is for the serious revellers. All the adults turn out in full costume (very few children today!) and there is non-stop action until just after midnight.
