Beaches

I know I have mentioned beaches quite a lot, but we are talking about the Caribbean islands and that means beaches are a big part of that experience, even more so when those beaches are all amazing in their own special way. 

Maracas beach, Trinidad, is hands down one of the most popular and is the place to be for both tourists and locals alike with its white sand, beautiful blue water and glorious waves. Unlike most of Tobago’s beaches Maracas has waves to make you experience a little more excitement. There is Las Cuevas Bay just 15min drive from Maracas with similar waves but the beach is longer and more spacious so you can feel a little less clustered when the crowds are in. Let’s not forget you can always get a nice bake and shark after. 

As for Tobago, one of the most unique beaches that we did not mention till now is one called No Mans Land. It is so called because for a long time there was no way of getting to this beach other than by boat. There was no way to get to it by car until a few years ago when a track was made. This beach joins to mangrove wetlands and is an important habitat for many species of bird.

 Our beaches are bound with endless beauty making them crucially essential for a successful tourism sector. Let us remember this on our next visit to the beach. As visitors and locals let us try to conserve the magnificence and splendor so it may lasts for decades to come.

  1. Hands down Las Cuevas Bay is the best beach for me. For the same reason that is mentioned. You have a lot of waves and more importantly you still get a scene of privacy because of how the beach is shaped. You can find your own little private spot where you can just relax and not really have to worry about anyone interfering with your stuff when you are in the water.

  2. Maracas will forever be mine for two main reasons. A lot of girls and shark and bake. Plus the car park is bigger and you don't have any steep incline to walk up like how Las Cuevas dose.

  3. Nope you are both wrong :P
    Tobago is where it is at, the water there is so nice and calm you forget that you are in the each, you feel like that you are in a pool just floating around, nothing better than that

  4. I dont really have a fav, I love both Trinidad and Tobago beaches. To me it dose not really matter because the result is the same for me. As soon as my feet though the water I am happy. :D

  5. Maracas - the beach of choice. But I appreciate the beauty of all and will certainly remember "No Mans Land". Not a fan of beaches but have to get accustom to liking them as I don't want my other half to kill me. :)
