Tobago Beginner Windsurfing Holiday

Tobago is one of the Caribbean's unspoiled islands; its fantastic beauty and natural charm slowly hypnotise the visitor into daydreams of staying long past their original return dates. At Pigeon Point the offshore Bucco reef has created an ideal tropical lagoon windsurfing set-up. Acting as a breakwater the reef protects the Bon Accord Lagoon from the turbulence of the open Caribbean Sea.

If you could paint a picture of a Caribbean beach then Pigeon Point would be it. Some of the most amazing turquoise water lapping against a beautiful white sandy beach, with grass roof huts scattered around and swaying palm trees overhanging. Many images of Pigeon Point have been used in magazines and brochures, which reinforces the beauty of the spot even more. All this combined makes for a totally fantastic experience and an even better location for participating in you boardsport of choice.

Itinerary / Highlights

THE WINDSURFING - RADICAL SPORTS TOBAGO
Radical Sports Tobago is based at Club Pigeon Point Resort overlooking the windsurf beach of Pigeon Point.
They stock Mistral / Starboard boards and North / Tushingham rigs, and instruction is available for all levels. As Pigeon Point is a privately owned beach there is a small entrance fee of approx £1 per day. The Pigeon Point beach is good for windsurfers with non-sailing partners or family, because of the shape of the beach, there is a friendly side that's good for bathers and where they are not "sand blasted" due to strong wind.

THE WIND
The winds are normally east to north east from October to May, averaging 12 to 20 knots. During spring they switch east to south east, about 8 to 15 knots until the rainy season in July. There is always the occasional exceptional day in between. November to January have the most constant strong winds. Tobago is basically a freeriders dream!
The best intermediate and basic level learning conditions are in August to December, as low tide makes water conditions very smooth in the lagoon. June usually produces the strongest winds averaging 25 knots.
