Tobago Plantations Golf & Country Club
About this course
Tobago Plantations Golf & Country Club occupies a coastal setting in Lowlands on the southwestern end of Tobago, the smaller of Trinidad and Tobago's two main islands. Designed by Bob Hunt and Marcus Blackburn, the course opened in the early 2000s as part of a larger resort and residential development. The layout takes advantage of the island's tropical landscape and Caribbean coastline, incorporating ocean views and prevailing trade winds into the playing experience. The routing works across relatively gentle terrain with strategic use of water features, including lakes and natural drainage areas that come into play on several holes. Fairways are bordered by tropical vegetation characteristic of the region, and the course presents a mix of risk-reward opportunities suited to the resort setting. Several holes play along or near the coastline, where wind direction and strength can significantly influence club selection and shot strategy. As the only 18-hole championship golf course in Tobago, the facility serves both resort guests and local members. The club operates within the broader Tobago Plantations estate, which includes hotel accommodations, villas, and other recreational amenities. The course provides a golf option for visitors to an island better known for its beaches and natural attractions than for golf tourism, offering a tropical Caribbean round in a region where golf infrastructure remains limited compared to other Caribbean destinations.

Getting there
The journey to Tobago Plantations Golf & Country Club begins at A.N.R. Robinson International Airport (TAB) on Tobago's southwestern coast, a short hop from Trinidad or direct from select Caribbean and North American gateways. The drive north along the island's leeward coast is a brief fifteen-minute affair, tracing turquoise waters and swaying palms before turning inland toward the Lowlands plateau. As the road climbs gently away from the sea, the landscape opens to reveal manicured fairways carved into rolling hillside - a verdant oasis where the Caribbean's laid-back rhythm meets the refined quiet of a private estate.
