DRINKS & NIGHTLIFE. It has to be seen to be believed, but Sunday School is one of those eye-bulging experiences you simply must see. Get there early to feel the tunes of a 150 piece steel band before the lights dim and the reggae starts. Tobago is one of the wonderful peaceful Caribbean islands where cruising even the most local of venues is still relatively safe. But beware of the rum, its cheaper than the coca cola!
