This was our first visit to Trinidad and we were really looking forward to it but our excursion was extremely disappointing. Did a trip to Maracas beach. Did not realize the drive was over an hour each way. Wouldn't have been so bad if we had a driver or guide who could tell us about the landmarks and places we passed on the way but that was not the case. When we got to Maracas beach it was a huge disppointment compared to beaches we've visited on other islands. There was quite a bit of trash and broken glass. Then as were sitting on the beach a huge fight broke out amongst some locals. When we went to the cafe we saw police carrying machine guns. Just did not feel like a very safe place. Lastly on the way back to the ship we were stuck on the bus for almost an hour due to a rock slide that blocked the road. It took almost 2 hours to get back to port. Not sure if we would want to visit this island again but if we do we'll definitely not do this excursion again.

we just stayed at the port and did shopping - wasn't sure about safety doing a walking tour on our own

Shops are closed on Sundays. Locals said crime is out of control and don’t walk around.

Was just OK. Sight seeing excursion was good but this particular island was not a highlight of the trip.
