#TOBAGO #Products #PLANTAINBread

Image
Another attractively packaged product Made in Tobago with Love.  Tobago is the place to sample new things. Have you ever had Plantain Bread before? This was my first time and I must say, it tastes really good. I often hear of customers looking for bread with a different taste than boring, regular flour bread. This should definitely satisfy them. It would also be nice to know some of the health benefits of this option for the health conscious...  Going to do some research...   Excellent, Plantain flour is a healthier substitute for wheat flour and the all-purpose flour. Plantain flour is: Rich in iron, Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), carotene and other vitamins.  Lower in calories than the regular all-purpose flour.  Low in fat, with just 0.3g  of fat in a 150g serving compared to all-purpose flour that contains 2.6g of fat in the same- size serving. (Its low fat content makes it perfect for people suffering from cholesterol related ail...

#Tobago #FortCampbellton

Image
While we  are on the topic of Charlotteville.  I took this picture using my  phone's panoramic view on  my birthday last year :) This is Fort Campbellton,  Charlotteville, Tobago.  It must have been the perfect day because this picture is perfect. Fort Campbellton According to visittobago.gov.tt this is NOT a fort despite commonly being called "Fort Campbellton". It is in fact a Battery. Batteries were positioned in various bays where sugar was loaded on the island. This battery of two guns was erected in 1777 during the American War of Independence when American privateers were raiding British islands.

Tobago International Game Fishing Tournament #tigft2017

Image
"The Tobago International Game Fishing Tournament began in 1995 as a loosely organized, just-for-kicks fishing tournament staged out of Pigeon Point, Tobago. Only a handful of boats participated but it proved to be the start of something that has endured and grown well beyond those humble beginnings. Now relocated to the north end of Tobago in the wonderfully friendly village of Charlotteville, the Tobago International Game Fishing Tournament pulls in anglers from near and far; from the Caribbean to North and South America, even as far as Europe, the tournament draws big game fisherman who can appreciate great camaraderie, competition and fishing conditions." -  http://www.tigft.com/ http://www.tigft.com/gallery/ Click here for more photos REGISTRATION  TUESDAY 12TH MAY 1ST DAY OF FISHING  WEDNESDAY 13TH MAY 2ND DAY OF FISHING  THURSDAY 14TH MAY LAY-DAY ACTIVITIES  FRIDAY 15TH MAY 3RD DAY OF FISHING & PRIZE GIVI...

#TOBAGO #Diving #MeetDAVEELLIOT

Image
For those who want to venture underwater in Tobago. Dave's your guy. Dave Elliot has been diving for the past 11 years. He's a P.A.D.I. Certified Rescue Diver, Dive Instructor, Underwater Media Specialist (photographer/ videographer) and Kayak Guide .    Dave describes Diving as being full of adventure, yet peaceful. Its difficult for him to pinpoint his fondest diving memory because he explains, every dive is different and there is no telling what you'll see when you go under. He does however identify Speyside as his favorite place to dive.  If you'd like to dive with Dave you'll first have to do the DISCOVER SCUBA COURSE. This is not a certificate course. It is essentially a Test Dive to see if you like it and want to take it further. When making a decision to try diving Dave says to first ensure that you are in good health.  To join Dave Elliot on a diving adventure contact him via Facebook -  CLICK HERE Be sure to check ou...

#TOBAGO #Experience #PullingSEINE

Image
The early bird catches the fish? Seine Fishing, known locally as "Pulling Seine", has been practiced on the beaches of Tobago for more than 150 years.  The practice has remained largely unchanged. Regularly large groups of locals and even tourists, can be found hauling in Seine in the early morning.  When the Seine is pulled in, the practice is that the fishermen first take what they need to sell. After this there is always enough for everyone who helped, even leaving behind enough for the birds.  Beaches that you can find Seine Fishing are: Mount Irvine Bay, Turtle Beach, Black Rock, Castara, Bloody Bay, Man ‘O War Bay, Mount St.George and Goodwood.
