How safe is Port of Spain?

The surrounding areas are relatively safe and friendly but I would recommend going with either a guide or local. The people are welcoming and easy to get along with, but don't walk after dark especially in the town centre or any highly congested areas. Be wary and Have fun!

About Me

I am a Caribbean national based in Trinidad (Trinidad and Tobago). I enjoy exploring God's beautiful creation- our peaceful beaches, hidden waterfalls and escaping into our natural landscapes. I seek to exemplify Jesus' love to others and honour God in all I do. I enjoy showing visitors around our beautiful island at no cost, it is a privilege to serve others =) P.S. I love swimming and have 22 pets- 3 dogs, 13 tortoises, 2 cockatiels, 1 macaw, 3 parrots. The 3 largest tortoises; Quasimodo, Esmerelda and Martin roam the yard like doggos. Martin has anxiety.
