"We are ho­n­oured to have Malala Yousafzai at Mag­dale­na Grand Beach & Golf Re­sort to­day. She is an in­spi­ra­tion around the world and her vis­it to To­ba­go will un­doubt­ed­ly en­cour­age the youth of our coun­try to over­come any chal­lenges," said Bernard Sarme, gen­er­al man­ag­er of Mag­dale­na Grand.

"We hope she en­joys the beau­ty of our coun­try as she vis­its key tourism spots and shares her ex­pe­ri­ences of the des­ti­na­tion on her glob­al trav­els," Sarme added.

The group vis­it­ed Buc­coo Reef where Malala and her fam­i­ly–in­clud­ing par­ents Tor Pekai and Zi­aud­din Yousafzai, and two broth­ers, Apal Khan Yousafzai and Khushal Khan Yousafzai–en­joyed a sea bath for the first time.
