Everything Antique hosted a very interested crowd to their first exhibition in Tobago, displaying a great number of yesteryear antiques, generously organized by their members.

What a beautiful Sunday afternoon at the space provided by the Integrated Facilities with the background of Buccoo Bay, where families and visitors had the opportunity to view old collectable items, nostalgic relics and treasures from early days.

A great thank you to the members of Everything Antique, for their enthusiastic contribution to the Community who had the occasion to satisfy their interest and curiosity.

Among the exhibitors Armagh and Dale with part of their collection of pre-columbian and colonial era artifacts.

The La Tartaruga Italian Cafe and Restaurant is open daytime for desserts, coffee, light bites to be enjoyed before or after a visit to the Museum Buccoo, which has an extensive collection of pre-columbian artifacts, rare maps, heritage books.
