10 Things to do Adventurous in Trinidad That You Shouldn't Miss

July 19, 2021 Diedre Savory

Looking for a Caribbean cultural melting pot renowned for its Carnival and pulsating to the beat of steel drums, soca music, and calypso? Trinidad is also lined with relaxing beaches and rainforest waterfalls. Nature watching is colorfully kaleidoscopic, with over 450 bird, 600 butterfly, and 700 orchid species. Golf, hiking, mountain biking, surfing, kayaking, fishing, and boating are among the outdoor pastimes. Cool off with fresh cane juice and sea moss milkshakes. Vegetarian food is plentiful. Eat curries and explore India’s influence at Maha Sabha Indian Caribbean Museum and the Waterloo Temple over the sea. Visit Port of Spain, and stroll and jog in Queen’s Park Savannah, near the Botanical Gardens, Emperor Valley Zoo, and Magnificent Seven buildings. The Savannah attracts truckloads of fresh coconuts, and doubles men sell coveted aloo pies. Walk around Independence Square and the Brian Lara Promenade. The Central Bank Money Museum in downtown’s financial district displays doubloons, gold bars, and Slave Savings Bank memorabilia. View Columbus Square’s 1836 Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. Parliament meets in Woodford Square’s Red House. King’s Wharf is where cruise ships and Tobago ferries dock. The Venezuela ferry docks at Williams Bay. Near the Chaguaramas Military History & Aerospace Museum is a marina with yachts, sailboats, dry docks, and boat hires. The South Quay’s Fort San Andreas, built by Spain in the 1700s, has a small Port of Spain history museum branch of the National Museum and Art Gallery of Trinidad and Tobago.

Gasparee Caves

Reviewed By Nicagyaltravels - Davie, United States

Wow wow wow.... First off this is a hike that requires you to be in shape. They say it takes 5 to 6 hours to and from but we started at 926am and didn't finish till 610pm. Bring water, start early like 7am and bring prepared food. Once you get to the beach there is fresh spring water you can refill your water bottles with. Travel as light as possible as this is a very strenuous hike. Its rated a 6/10 in difficulty and definitely do this hike with Shaun from Hike Life Adventures. He is the absolute best. Truly a gifted hiker. The beauty of this hike is the journey and finishing it. There is a boat that can take you to the beach but you miss the hidden gems along the way. I saw things many tourist never get to see. This was one for the books...
