In Pursuit of Paradise

The Caribbean is a long way to come in pursuit of the perfect beach, especially when you come from New Zealand, one of the most picturesque places there is.  So far we have seen rain forests, rustic french villages, brightly coloured towns in pinks and blues, markets bursting with produce, waterfalls, hot pools, and many many beaches.  But I still feel like I'm looking for "the one". 


We are nearing the end of the Caribbean chain of islands, and have been told that the Grenadines are right at the top of the list of idyllic islands in the Caribbean.   Tobago Cays just about ticks of the list of paradise: turtles, turquoise water, coral and deserted beaches. 

Worlds End Island

The only thing letting it down is the rolling swell (despite the fringing reef), the boat boys hitting the boat multiple times, and the beaches that look great from a far but just not quite as good up close.
