Published every year since 1991, Discover T&T 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 second edition in the row, the magazine features a distinctive dual-cover design, with one cover for each island — Trinidad's Gasparee Caves (captured by Stephen Reyes) and a leatherback turtle hatchling in Tobago (captured by Giancarlo Lalsingh). 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.

Buying your place in<br />
the sun<br />
There are several options for investing in<br />
property here: buying a timeshare or into<br />
a development (averaging US$500,000–<br />
$1 million); buying land and building yourself (land<br />
averages US$60,000–$200,000); or purchasing<br />
traditional single-family homes (averaging<br />
US$160,000 to upward of US$4 million). The<br />
market in recent years has seen falling prices,<br />
so there are deals to be had. Foreign buyers are<br />
required to obtain a licence, which allows for<br />
purchasing up to an acre in certain locations.<br />
Property taxes were reintroduced in 2016,<br />
and there is a 5–10% stamp duty on most real<br />
estate transactions, plus applicable legal fees.<br />
Agencies like the well-established Abraham<br />
<strong>Tobago</strong> Realty and Caribbean Estates,<br />
Lands & Villas can help you buy your piece of<br />
paradise.<br />
