Description
Begin in the “doubles capital” and sample popular curry-flavored East Indian Trinidadian street foods to energize your day. Avoid a large breakfast to enjoy the food stops fully.
Take an easy 45-minute hike to the Mud Volcano, a large circular pool with bubbling clay material and active vents. The warm mud is said to rejuvenate the skin and offers a unique bathing experience. Hair and face do not need to be covered.
Continue with a 30 to 45-minute hike to a secluded beach, ideal for rinsing off the mud before returning to the vehicle for the drive back to your hotel.
Additional Information
Trinidad has over 15 mud volcanoes, traditionally called “guaico” by the original Amerindian inhabitants, meaning “mud-stream.” These volcanoes bubble with cooler gases rather than erupting lava.
