Wind Surfing
The waters surrounding Tobago also offer some very good windsurfing opportunities. From beginners, who are learning, to experienced surfers looking for a thrill, our windsurf center at surfers paradise Pigeon Point has something for you.
At Pigeon Point the offshore Buccoo reef has created an ideal tropical lagoon windsurfing set up. Acting as breakwater the reef protects the Bon Accord Lagoon from the turbulence of the open Caribbean Sea.
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.
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.
