Trinidad and Tobago are twin islands situated 83 kilometres apart from each other, located in the Lesser Antilles. The spirit of Carnival runs through the heart of Trinidad, as this fun-loving island combines extraordinary natural resources with exuberant beach parties. Tobago is the smaller of the two, but there is still much to explore, with all the main sights accessible by road.
The islands share a remarkable variety of bird species, with birdwatching one of the top attractions in Trinidad and Tobago. A stay in the Asa Wright Nature centre is the perfect way to enjoy this array of wildlife, with over 170 bird species recorded from the main house verandah of Trinidad’s premier birding lodge. Moreover, the AWNC champion conservation in the area, meaning this natural landscape will be preserved for future generations.
