Inland, there is rich natural vegetation and untouched rain forest. At one time joined to continental South America, Trinidad, and its sister island, Tobago, are famous among naturalists for the enormous variety of fauna, especially birds and butterflies. Bounded by the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Caribbean Sea on the other, Tobago has perhaps the most beautiful of the tropical coastlines, with turquoise waters, white volcanic sand beaches and deep bays. Here, and in the reefs around the island, live many species of tropical reef fish whilst in the deeper waters there is an abundance of mackerel, king fish and barracuda, much sought after by deep sea fishermen. Temperatures vary from 25 to 33 degrees Centigrade and are generally moderated by the gentle trade winds.
Evenings are generally cooler and very pleasant.
