You can also add a sleep aboard night at the beginning of your charter if you are arriving after 5.00p.m. If you plan a different itinerary, we will work that out with you. The golden rule - don't be too ambitious. Most people get to the Tobago Cays and after a few hours there, don't want to go any further!
