Crown Point Supermarkets

11° 9.5′ N · 60° 50.2′ W

Crown Point, around the airport and Store Bay, is the best place on Tobago to provision, with a choice of supermarkets and mini-marts within walking or short taxi distance of the anchorage.

Practical

Position is Jimmy's Mini Mart on Milford Road (OpenStreetMap), which a 2015 cruiser called the best stocked near Store Bay. Noonsite (April 2024) says Store Bay is the best provisioning location on the island, with many supermarkets and mini-marts and a daily fish market on Pigeon Point Road, though Trinidad has a wider choice. The same 2015 report sends you to the larger Penny Saver market, about a 30-minute walk toward Scarborough or a quick, cheap taxi. Gulf City Mall at Lowlands, near the airport, is where a 2020 cruiser bought a local SIM. ATMs: several around Crown Point and Milford Road (OpenStreetMap). Taxis are cheap on the main road and charge extra to divert off it; a 2015 cruiser paid TT$7 per person Store Bay to Scarborough (verify locally). Store hours not confirmed; verify locally.
