Trinidad and Tobago
Rainbow Country
If you want to see the world’s largest brain coral, you will need to take a trip to Trinidad and Tobago, the twin island country known as T&T, located just off the northern edge of South America. T&T is the wealthiest country in the Caribbean. Tobago is famous for its pristine, white sand beaches and its relaxed atmosphere. It is the origin of the musical instrument called a steelpan. It is also home to calypso dancing, the limbo dance contest and one of the hottest chillies in the world.
This island is the setting for the books “Robinson Crusoe” and “Treasure Island”. The island’s Main Ridge Forest Reserve is the oldest, protected rainforest in the world. In February, it becomes one of the best places in the Caribbean to celebrate Carnival, the greatest show on earth.
