What to do and see in Trinidad, Trinidad and Tobago: The Best Waterfalls
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.

Beautiful waterfall and hike to get there. It took us 1 hour 15 minutes to get there, as it was quite slippery due to the rains. You get to see the rainforest and a beautiful waterfall as a reward. Go for a swin in the clear water after your climb. Path is easy to follow without a guide. We are no hikers at all, and even managed to get there.

This was a great experience. The waterfall was beautiful. We were able to have it all alone. BRING HIKING SHOES, or shoes you do not mind losing or getting dirty. Nick is a PHENOMENAL guide. He really knows the country’s history. The hike was short and beautiful, and peaceful. Book with Sensational Tours!

This place, that is ,if you love forestry, is a place for you to feel nature real nature. The Tranquility is Amazing, It is not just a waterfall, it is more than that. It is amazing. I am from Costa Rica. But I never ever here anyone speaking of a waterfall in Trinidad, therefore we decided to Venture, Oh I love it. There is a problem though. The road to get there is TERRIBLE. that is driving. They need to use all of that ASPHALT and get to work. But please this is not my concern, I do not own a car here. But my sister in law does, and boy, her front end is gone completely from her Mercedes Benz.
