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.

Football (soccer)<br />
Probably the nation’s favourite sport. Several<br />
<strong>Trinidad</strong>ian footballers play in foreign<br />
premier leagues. T&T has hosted the FIFA<br />
World (men’s) Under-17 championships<br />
and Women’s Under-17 FIFA world championships,<br />
while the national team <strong>—</strong> the<br />
Soca Warriors <strong>—</strong> represented T&T as the<br />
smallest nation ever to qualify for the World<br />
Cup finals in 2006. The multi-purpose<br />
Hasely Crawford (Port of Spain), Manny<br />
Ramjohn (Marabella), Larry Gomes (Arima),<br />
Ato Boldon (Couva) and Marvin Lee<br />
stadiums are the main venues. <strong>Trinidad</strong> &<br />
