Discover Trinidad & Tobago 2018 (#29)

Discover T&T has published 29 issues since 1991, and helps readers discover where to stay, dine, lime, party, and shop; and what to see (including the islands’ best sites) and experience (festivals, arts and culture, sports, and eco escapes), in both islands. There’s also a national calendar of events; info on getting here and getting around; tips for safe and sustainable travel; T&T history and society in a nutshell, maps; and more. For the third edition in the row, the magazine features a distinctive dual-cover design, with one cover for each island — a ruby topaz humming- bird photographed in the Arima Valley (photograph by Wendell Stephen Jay Reyes) and the relaxing scene of someone lounging atop a glass- bottom boat in the Nylon Pool (photograph by Tarique Eastman). Discover T&T is aimed at local and international explorers planning getaways to the islands — whether for an eco adventure, business trip, or beach holiday. For more: http://www.discovertnt.com

Grafton Caledonia Bird & Wildlife Sanctuary<br />

Devastated by a hurricane in the ‘70s, this was once a<br />

beautiful retreat. Still, in the afternoons from 4pm, you<br />

can see lots of cocricos (<strong>Tobago</strong>’s national bird), hummingbirds,<br />

honeycreepers and motmots close up. The<br />

approach is steep and unsurfaced but for birders, it will<br />

be worth the effort.<br />

Like manna from heaven, mangoes rain<br />

down on this 12-acre estate in Arnos Vale,<br />

where they are lovingly made into juice,<br />

ice-cream and chutneys. Savour sublime<br />

soursop juice made from soursop grown<br />

right on the estate. In this haven of sustainable<br />

tourism, nothing is wasted and<br />

52 species of birds can be seen — motmots,<br />

hummingbirds (the rare and fragile<br />

For the birders<br />

albino hummingbird has been seen here),<br />

bananaquits, and red-crowned woodpeckers.<br />

They flutter and buzz around<br />

the hanging feeders, or eat bananas in<br />

a luxury birdhouse at very close range.<br />

Herbs from the garden are used to prepare<br />

meals. Everything is powered by<br />

solar energy. Open from 7am Monday–<br />

Saturday, 639-2839<br />
