End of the beach

We got into Tobago Cays early in the morning and went ashore before it got crowded. We hiked around a bit and found the fisherman's conch shell depository and found some really cool shells. Then we went to the other side of the island and hiked up to the top of the island and we could see really far! Around eleven o'clock the private yachts started to come in and destroy the calm and peace of the island. Before going back to the ship we walked the beach which was becoming more and more crowed. We saw coral fragments lying on the beach that I decided were broken off by all the boats coming in and not caring about destroying this beautiful place. I think it's good that countries are reserving more and more land for national parks.

Tobago Cays Park - Green Light
"The Tobago Cays are five tiny, uninhabited islands surrounded by reefs and enclosing a turquoise sand-bottomed lagoon one of the most inspiring natural beauty spots in the Caribbean. The Cays are also one of the Grenadines' most popular anchorages; a 1995 survey indicated that some 14,000 yachtspeople, 25,000 charterboat daytrippers and 10,000 cruiseship passengers visit the Cays annually"...(more from Caribbean compass)
