Police: No reports of serious crimes to 89,000 Tobago visitors

None of the nearly 90 thousand Cruise Ship visitors to Tobago have faced any serious crimes since the start of the season in November.

The TTPS credits this to the steadfast and strategic concentrated patrols of Tobago officers, particularly the Tourism-Oriented Policing Section, known as TOPS.

So far 49 cruise liners have docked at Scarborough and Charlotteville, with visitors going to many attractions on the island.

During the period November 11th, 2024, to present, a total of 49 cruise ships have docked at the Tobago Ports of Charlotteville and Scarborough with approximately 89,700 visitors. During their short stay, they visitedplaces such as the Adventure Farm and Nature Reserve, Buccoo Reef, Mt Irvine and Pigeon Point Beaches, Cocoa House, Argyle Waterfall, Tobago Main Ridge Forest Reserve and various of the island’s historic Fort, to name a few.

The results, according to Head of the TOPS, Cpl John, are evident in the feedback of visitors, who “usually express their feelings of how safe they feel and how friendly and kind the police and the people of the island are.”

But this accomplishment, she said, involves the sustained and concentrated patrol regime of foot, mobile, and e-bikes, in tandem with tour operators.
