Tobago Cays - Perched on the edge of the world

After a short 5 mile hop from Union Island we tucked in behind nature's spectacular horseshoe reef.
We chose a secluded location to relax in the tranquil turquoise water rather than crowd in with the unbelievable number of 58 boats already there. Obviously many of the U.S. cruisers and those on charter boats chose the Cays for their Thanksgiving holiday location. Good choice, for sure.
While snorkelling on the reef we sighted 3 hawksbill turtles (swam along with one), l shark (nurse we believe, it was hiding on us), a school of squid, jelly-fish, wrasses, not mention fish of all imaginable colours and combinations.
Anchoring behind the horseshoe reef lets you feel like you're on the edge of the world. The bounty of fish and beauty leave you wondering if you're not perched on the edge of heaven.
