Travel to the Caribbean: Trinidad & Tobago Island Guide
Trinidad and Tobago are an intriguing pair of islands, with a mix of West Indian and African cultures, unique flora and fauna, and a vibrant nightlife that has produced calypso, soca and steel drum music. The country has the strongest economy of any in the Caribbean, and the capital is a bustling city of a half-million.
Best Beaches in Trinidad and Tobago
The twin-island nation of Trinidad and Tobago has some great beaches, including some charming strands popular with day-trippers from the capital Port of Spain and the quiet Tobago getaway spots where Trini natives flock for their own holiday getaways.
Unique Caribbean Spectator Sports and Sporting Events
Caribbean visitors might think they would play golf, sail and snorkel all the time if they lived in the islands, but Caribbean residents themselves have a much broader range of interests when it comes to sports. If it's true that the way people play says a lot about how they live, then visitors can learn a lot (and have a great time, too) by joining the crowd at these popular Caribbean pastimes.
