Highlights

Maracas Beach - Travel up to the scenic north coast road to admire the view of the Paramin hills to the west with their plantations of herbs and spices. A short stop at the Maracas Lookout gives you the opportunity for some pictures of the surrounding bays. Try a variety of local snacks from the vendors and you maybe even be able to hear a little improvised Calypso music.

Make your way to the popular Maracas Beach, lined with coconut trees. Here you can enjoy a refreshing swim in the cool Caribbean waters. Taste the world famous Bake and Shark Sandwich!

Las Cuevas Beach - Picture perfect! Here at this mile-long beach surrounded by lush, green rainforest-covered mountains, free of high-rise hotels and practically untouched by tourism, you can kick back and take in the picturesque views. We can enjoy a relaxing swim or just float around in the calm waters of the Caribbean Sea.
Blanchisseuse Beach - Feel the sand between your toes as you walk along its sandy shores. Make your way to the Marianne River’s beautiful and natural lagoon. Here we savour a refreshing river bath before taking the same route back. Your tour concludes with a drop-off back in Port of Spain at around 5pm.

It’s a MUST. - This tour was an amazing experience. Trinidad is beautiful. Khaleel was our guide, he was very pleasant and patient. He was very knowledgeable about every thing. I would definitely recommend this Tour and more importantly Island Experiences. Remember to ask for Khaleel.

Flexible timing and touring options for Trinidad beaches! - Our driver & guide Khalil was fantastic. He considered my dietary requirements when helping us try delicious foods, stopped at a pharmacy for bug-bite lotion when we needed it and was extremely flexible when it came to our beach options. It was a fun day checking out different spots and we never felt rushed. Bonus: I requested a slightly later start time because we got in very late the night before and the company made it happen. This was a fun and easy way to see several of Trinidad's beautiful beaches...a few of which had NO tourists! Highly recommend!

Excellent experience enjoyed by everyone! - The trip down the five islands was fantastic. Our guide (Jenelle) definitely knows her history and answered all questions in the hot sunshine on a speeding boat. She also handles the pick-ups & traffic with ease and doesn't get flustered. The boat ride was smooth and the captain and crew of the Yacht, were professional and friendly. We swam in Scotland Bay and Turtle Bay in warm, calm waters and use of the rubber raft. We even got free shots from the 'bartender'. Plenty of pictures were taken indeed! We would definitely recommend this experience to anyone!

Beautiful tour, captain and crew of the Yacht were professional and friendly. - The trip down the islands was beautiful. The boat ride was smooth and the captain and crew of the Yacht, Finesse, were professional and friendly. We swam in Scotland Bay in warm, calm waters. We even got a 5-minute swimming lesson on how to float and tread water properly. A wonderful experience indeed.

All good and happy with my choice. - Nice trip with excellent host Derream (please excuse my spelling). Good value. Car broke down briefly at top end at Blanchiseusse but that allowed time for a river swim. Las Cuevas beach and Maracas visited with lovely bake shark at the former and another swim. Good choice of excursion although premium to pay if not enough people.

What more can I say?! - The title says it all. Island Experiences took me on an afternoon beach tour of Maracas Beach, Las Cuevas, and Blanchisseuse. I decided to go in the last minute but the tour had already begun. Fortunately, the team at Island Experiences were more than accommodating. They helped me to secure a ride to Maracas where I met with the tour guide Stefan and from there it was easy and breezy. Relaxing on the beach at Las Cuevas was really a treat...the water was calm that day and it wasn't too cold. Next, we headed off to Blanchisseuse which might be one of the most picturesque places I've ever been to in my life. There was also a small area where the ocean met the river and you could see different wildlife that survived in a small brackish(when salt and fresh water mix) pond. I'd recommend Island Experiences for any planned excursion in Trinidad and Tobago. They're more than welcoming and by the end of the day, you'll feel part of the family.
