Tobago in top 10 list of world's best islands

A report in the Toronto Star names TOBAGO as one of the top 10 "exotic island destinations" in the world.

The list has been compiled by the travel organisation, FROMMERS.

Englishman's Bay, Tobago
It has one-line descriptions of the 10 islands. This is how it describes Tobago:

"Tobago – You can laze on quiet beaches and explore green mountains with exotic birds and darting, green iguanas."

Here is the article taken from the Toronto Star:

Frommers recently listed its top 10 “exotic island destinations.” Here’s a look at what they found.

Koh Tonsay, Cambodia – The tiny, practically deserted island deserted of Koh Tonsay, just south of the resort town of Kep, is Cambodia's best-kept secret for seaside relaxation among the natural splendor of the Gulf of Siam.

Raiatea and Tahaa, Tahiti – Raiatea is the most sacred island in the South Seas. The vanilla island of Tahaa is even more traditional and is home to one of the most luxurious resorts in the region.

Isle au Haut, Maine – More than half the island is dedicated to Acadia National Park.

Block Island, Rhode Island – Dramatic clay cliffs, hundreds of sweet-water ponds nestling in the rolling green interior and wild roses clambering over beach dunes.

Molokai, Hawaii – Only a few kilometers from touristed Maui, but a world apart. Not many beaches but incredible scenery and an adorable town, Kaunakakai.

Corn Islands, Nicaragua – Unspoiled beaches, vibrant coral reefs and largely undiscovered by globe-trotting hordes.

Caye Caulker, Belize - For anyone who’s had the urge to flee the rat race and parachute onto a tropical island with velvety air and a breezy, barefoot lifestyle, this would fit the bill.

Guadeloupe - This Caribbean island has no grand resorts and the shopping can’t compare to nearby Martinique. But it’s got great inns and beachside, seafood shacks.

Quirimbas Archipelago, Mozambique - It and the south coastal Bazaruto Archipelago have been called “two of the most exquisitely untouched regions in the world.”

Tobago – You can laze on quiet beaches and explore green mountains with exotic birds and darting, green iguanas.
