Trinidad and Tobago

A twin-island nation at the southern end of the Caribbean, famed for its Carnival, steelpan music, rainforest birdwatching and the beaches of Tobago.

Trinidad and Tobago lies at the very southern end of the Caribbean, just off the coast of Venezuela. It consists of the islands of Trinidad and Tobago plus several smaller islets, and its capital is Port of Spain. It is the birthplace of the steelpan and the home of calypso and soca music, and its Carnival, held each year before Lent, is a huge event. Trinidad has the scarlet ibis of Caroni Swamp, the rainforests of the Northern Range and the Pitch Lake, while Tobago is known for its coral reefs, beaches and forest reserve. The dry season runs roughly from January to May; the international gateway is Piarco International Airport.
