Sculpture

by kyoub

Professor Luise Kimme, a German sculptor, lives below the village of Bethel, Tobago since 1979, where she has her studio and the Luise Kimme Sculpture Museum. Her unique Caribbean sculptures are created from native wood, often making use of the natural growth of trees and limbs.When holidaying in Tobago, a Sunday visit to the Kimme Museum is a must. There you can admire the larger than life size sculptures made from oak and cedar wood, depicting perfect portraits of the Tobago islanders.

Visiting hours: Sundays from 9.00 am - 2.00 pm. Visits at other times can be arranged per telephone ( 868) 639-0257. ( To get to the museum you pass the Mount Irvine Bay Hotel and follow the "Luise Kimme Museum" signs all the way up.)

Little capital of a little island

by DSwede

While Scarborough may be the capital of Tobago, it is not where most tourists would want to stay.

Scarborough is where the ferry terminal is. And above the town is the location of Fort George.

Otherwise, there are a few food markets that the locals go to and you may be able to entertain yourself here for a short while watching the locals and maybe shopping for spices.

Most tourist-friendly businesses, restaurants, hotels, etc. are in nearby Crown Point.
