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.

Harvest & Fisherman’s Festivals<br />
Once an annual community thanksgiving for the<br />
year’s harvest, one Sunday each month now sees<br />
a village in <strong>Tobago</strong> hosting a Harvest Festival. Fisherman’s<br />
festivals take place in coastal villages yearround,<br />
mainly on St Peter’s Day. Like the harvest festivals,<br />
they begin with church services in the morning and end with<br />
eating, drinking, and partying into the night. The biggest celebration<br />
is in Charlotteville. Visitors are always welcome.<br />
Charlotteville Harvest Festival includes a<br />
re-enactment of the cocoa dance.<br />
