    Trinidad Time

    April 18, 2023 in Trinidad and Tobago ⋅ ☁️ 31 °C

    Today we arrived in Trinidad which is a much bigger island than the twin state of Tobago. It is much more built up with lots of hotels, industries and high rise buildings which was completely different to Tobago which seemed more remote.

    We went on a trip today which took us to the highlights of Trinidad 🇹🇹
    Firstly we stopped at the botanical gardens which had some really pretty trees and blossoms. On the way there we stopped at the biggest roundabout in the world which is also known as the savannah as it is so vast!
    We then stopped at Maracas point which had some amazing views of the coastline. Trinidad is very mountainous and we travelled round lots of winding hairpin bends which was slightly scary!
    Our last stop was Maracas beach where Tom tried the local delicacy- bake n shark, which is pretty much fried shark in a bap!
    On return we had a walk around the port however we didn't find much to see as it is more of an industrial area. We did find some bars and I discovered a drink I like called Caribe Rose which is like a rose cider, tasty!
