People always rave about Cappadocia’s landscape, and rightly so – it can feel like you’re on a totally different planet. However, Cappadocia’s beauty and awesomeness isn’t just skin deep as […]

Galata Bridge in Istanbul

March 29, 2014by Kendra S 8 Comments

I always find it interesting how functional things can become iconic, take a life of their own, and embed themselves into the fabric of a location and culture. In Istanbul, […]

Buccoo Reef is a protected marine park near Pigeon Point and Store Bay in Tobago. I have mixed feelings about this reef. Due to the sheer number of people who have visited over the years, a lot of it has been damaged. However, there are still parts of it that are beautiful. You can visit Buccoo Reef via a glass-bottom boat, several of which leave daily from Store Bay and Pigeon Point. If it is a good weather day, you’ll get to snorkel. If the weather is not so great, you won’t, unfortunately. I’ve been several times, and only once did not get to snorkel. Note: Okay, so the glass bottom boat tours are a hit and miss. Like any group tour, sometimes you’ll get a nice group of people and other times you’ll get a rambunctious crowd. The tours are about two hours long and some boats are a sailing party, playing loud soca music. #trinidadandtoba #islandlove #islandlife #trinilife #tobagolove #tobagolife #tobagovibes #ig_caribbean #ig_trinidadtobago #ttunseen #westindies #island360 #boatlife #boatparty #water_captures #water_shots #airheadsflock #passionpassport #trav3lr #travelingram #buccooreef #color_fab #color_captures #pocket_colors #beach_time #beachlife #wandersociety #boatlifestyle #caribbeanlife #lifeintnt
