Why this petition matters

The Rocky Point Foundation (RPF) is a formal non-profit organization that was put together by several ‘stakeholder’ individuals who are all intimately familiar with the environment, ecosystems, heritage, and archeology that make up Rocky Point, and as such, seek to preserve the area for all future generations of Tobagonians. The RPF committee includes environmental scientists, ocean engineers, and other professionals who are passionate about ensuring that all the relevant factors and potential negative side effects of any development considered for the lands at Rocky Point are thoroughly analyzed.

The RPF is in full agreement that Tobago needs a brand such as Marriot and commends the developers for garnering their interest, however, for the environmental, archeological & heritage reasons outlined on our website (www.saverockypoint.com the RPF believes that the lands at Rocky Point are not suited to this type of development, and the development could ironically destroy the same unique beauty, that made the site attractive for the development in the first place.

Sign our petition if you agree that the proposed Marriot development should be relocated to a more suitable location and that the virgin environment of Rocky Point be designated a heritage site and nature reserve !!
