Discover Trinidad & Tobago 2016 — 25th Anniversary Edition
With our 2016 edition (our 27th), we celebrate 25 years of producing Discover Trinidad & Tobago. Published every year since 1991, Discover Trinidad & Tobago is aimed both at international visitors planning a trip to the islands – whether for an eco adventure, business trip, or beach holiday – and at local Trinbagonians looking to know and explore more about their native islands. Our comprehensive coverage of Trinidad and Tobago — from arts and culture to eco adventures, accommodation to sports, planning flights and transportation and more — can help anyone plan anything from a day trip or weekend escape, to a full-on an adventure holiday or leisurely vacation. It might take a lifetime to truly experience all that the islands have to offer, but at least we can show you where to start.

Shopping<br />
Gulf City Lowlands Mall<br />
The air-conditioned Gulf City Lowlands Mall is the place for most retail items you might be<br />
in search of, with both local and international brands, plus a food court, salons, and the<br />
adjacent multiplex cinema.<br />
Groceries & markets<br />
The largest groceries are in Canaan and Carnbee, while smaller groceries and parlours can<br />
be found island-wide and especially between Crown Point and Scarborough. Specialty<br />
food items, including local favourites, are available in Mount Pleasant at Moreshead. The<br />
Scarborough Market is best visited on a Friday or Saturday, and specialises in fish, fruit,<br />
vegetables and local foods. Vendors at the port in Scarborough and opposite the check-in<br />
area at ANR Robinson airport sell traditional candies in sizes that travel well.<br />
Local craft &<br />
souvenirs<br />
Hand-crafted items (from<br />
shoes and jewellery to<br />
fabric, clothing, soaps and<br />
sculptures) and miniature<br />
steel pans are a good buy,<br />
and are widely available<br />
near Crown Point, especially<br />
at Store Bay’s Craft<br />
Market, at Pigeon Point<br />
and Scarborough Market,<br />
and at Sunday School in<br />
Buccoo from around 7pm.<br />
Shore Things in Lambeau<br />
offers original art, craft and<br />
hand-made items (plus<br />
there’s a lovely café on<br />
site). Most are locally produced,<br />
though imported<br />
clothing, beach wraps and<br />
souvenirs are also for sale.<br />
You’ll also find some shops<br />
