Iguana
A mile away from Mayreau is the small group of islands called Tobago Cays. Phil, Al & Virginia went ashore to the different islands to hike where they were met by many iguanas. They were about 2 ½ feet and would hang out in the trees and eat the leaves. At one place they walked into two of them that were engaged in a battle. Not sure what the battle was over- maybe a cute female.
Boaters love Tobago since it is surrounded by reefs and has a very sandy bottom to anchor in. It is a marine park that is home to many turtles. They would surface all around the boat just long enough for you to turn your camera on and then they were gone. We stayed 3 nights but you could spend a very long time there snorkeling, wind surfing, watching the kite surfers, all surrounded by warm turquoise water. The cruise ships can’t make it inside so it was all the more private.
