I also found it difficult to get diving information about Tobago before I visited last October. The problem is that the tourist area and most accommodations are in the south around Crown Point. The better diving is at Speyside in the northeast. Although the island is small, it takes 1 1/2 hours to drive from Crown Point to Speyside. There are no full sized hotels per se in Speyside. There are 3 small accommodations and several very small guesthouses. The largest is Blue Waters and has separate, gated grounds with its own pier. The other two hotels are closer to the center part of town. They are situated between the mountain, the road, and then the Atlantic. Both have dive shops on site, but they drive you down to the town pier were their boats are located. I stayed at Manta Lodge and dove with Tobago Divers. The lodge is an old style "dive inn". Room had excellent a/c and was comfortable, but had no t.v. or phone. It did have Wi-Fi. Owners treated us like family and we often ate meals with them and their dogs in the open, un-airconditioned dining/bar area. Diving was also very personalized. Caveat: The owner had just bought a new boat, but it was not set up for diving. Contrary to expectations for that time, visibility was 50-100 feet, currents were mild to moderate, and weather was perfect.
