Trinidad & Tobago Tourism

March 16th, 2008 · No Comments

Trinidad and Tobago are the two most southern Caribbean islands only 11km of the Venezuelan Coast. The country also counts 21 smaller islands. The climate is tropical with the first six months of the year being the dry season. Trinidad is the highest populated island and the main towns are situated on this Island. Port of Spain is the Capital and mayor port of the country. Nicholas Tower, a 21 store high building is known up till now to be the highest building in the country.

San Fernando (in the Gulf of Paria) with the petrol industry to its north, and Chaguanas in the centre are the largest cities in the country. The Island of Trinidad is by far best known to tourists and has a wide range of activities. If you want to explore nature, the northern Range and coast will be your favourite destination. Reserves like Asa Wright Nature Centre, Mount St. Benedict, Caroni Nature Reserve and Nariva Swamp will be places to discover. But if you want to enjoy the Caribbean Beaches than Maracs, Las Cuevas, Mayaro and Manzanilla would be your favourite destinations. Best facilities for sailing and water sports can be found on the peninsula of Chaguaramas and the offshore islands.

Tobago can be seen as the natural Reserve of the country, its nature being untouched, the interior covered with rain forest. Its palm-lined beaches and pristine coral reefs are of the best found in the Caribbean. Between Crown Point and Plymouth: Store Bay, Buccoo Reef (Reserve), Pigeon Point, Turtle Beach, Canoe Bay. At the Leeward coast: Culloden Beach, King Peter’s Bay, Englishman’s Bay, Bloody Bay and at the Windward Cost: Granby Point, Richmond Beach, Bellevue Bay, King’s Bay, Pirate’s Bay. Away from the beaches you can explore the Tobago Forest Reserve and visit Argyle Falls or Flagstaff Hill. But make sure to get a guide so you’ll be able to fully enjoy this marvellous nature.
