La Forêt Beach

If you are like me and love the beautiful, clear waters of the Caribbean Sea, then, you don't want to miss out on this one!

Hidden on the Northeast coast of the island is one of Trinidad most beautiful beaches called La Forêt. It is truly a breath-taking beach and I could understand why it is one of Toco's best-kept secret. Surrounded by lush green forest, it offers a postcard-perfect environment that is hard to find elsewhere in Trinidad. Trust me, I didn't expect much at first on my first visit, but I was truly surprised by the beauty that awaited me. Take a look for yourself, do you not agree?



This pristine wide stretch of soft golden sand and edging turquoise waters is just great for sloughing off the heat of the town or ideal for visitors seeking a combination of natural beauty and relaxation. This magical bit of coastline is located 2 miles south of Galera Point, and nestled between a coconut estate and Toco Forest Reserve. It can be a little tricky to reach but is definitely worth the effort.

Did I forget to mention that this seascape is divided by a rock that juts 25m upwards and is 100m in length? Well, it is!!

For the cautious adventurer, the rock is the perfect place to relax and spread out under the Caribbean Sun. The picturesque background of the Toco Forest Reserve with its lush green slopes adds to the breath-taking scenery, which will excite any nature-lover's heart.

I hope this place has piqued your interest like it did for me. It's worth taking the time to find this beach. Book your tour now, take a selfie or a WE-fie when you arrive and cherish the memory of being at La Floret Beach.

Cabin at the Pines

Image
Cabin at the Pines is the perfect Eco-lover getaway location. A stunning handcrafted wooden cabin, located in a very secluded and private area in St. Anns, sits within half an acre of flat land surrounded by a forest of Caribbean pine that affords marvelous views down to Port of Spain and inland over the hills that surround Port of Spain. Just as how any getaway should be, away from the crowd. This dreamy cabin offers such serenity that you would expect it to be out in the deep of the forest, but this is not the case. Trust me, I was lost for words upon arrival. I could not believe that this little piece of heaven existed in Trinidad. Who would have known? The drive to the cabin is nothing short of an adventure, but the mountain road is very steep and as a result, I would strongly recommend that you use a four wheel drive - anything short of this is a no go. This spot makes it great for weddings, parties, baby showers, teas, dinners, limes and any other entertainme...

ATV Recreation Park

Get away from the hustle of city life and into the Arima countryside for a wild four-mile ride on an ATV. Hop on a single-seat all-terrain vehicle and enjoy this off-road romp through Arima's landscape of lush forest, featuring sand, mud, and anything else Mother Nature offers. You will definitely get your adrenaline pumping, because I know I did! The trail you will embark on is designed to fit all skill levels, so be prepared to have an exciting and exhilarating experience. Prepare for a trail full of bumps, dips, and twists and turns. I had a blast racing along the trail and through the mud!! A lot of dirt was kicked up, but this just made the experience more thrilling. Upon arrival, riders will be given a ten-minute introduction on how to operate the vehicle, including safety instructions and will be provided with helmets, gloves, and goggles as a safety precaution. This is considered mandatory for all drivers and riders. You will feel safe and secure, whether you are an ...

Bamboo Cathedral

Image
Let's take a look at another unique feature of Trinidad's landscape that surely confirms that true beauty can be found in the most inconspicuous places. Tucked away in a forested area of Chaguaramas, one can observe an expanse known as the Bamboo Cathedral.  For years, this setting has been a popular destination for people to experience the splendour of  Mother Nature. The view is, even more, breath-taking when having a pleasant stroll at twilight.  What makes this place one of Trinidad's most popular destinations is the stretch of roadway that cuts through the dense vegetation, transporting visitors into a landscape of soaring bamboo stalks that bend towards each other above the roadway forming arches reminiscent of those found in cathedrals. The roadway is approximately 300m long and is accessible directly from Tucker Valley Road, Chaguaramas. Its generous width accommodates both pedestrians and cyclists, allowing people to experience the landscape at thei...
