Point Fortin????
Whoa that's far from Everything.
That's the south western side of the island is kinda boring, ain't to far from Venezuela by boat. I thought you was staying more in the North where there are a lot more action in the week and on weekends.
Just don't be to flashy, keep to yourself and you will have a good time.
Puncheon Rum is called speak the truth! Try a shot!
If you can stay in Port of Spain for a few days that will be good. On hotels.com you can find some deals on the north of the island and the east west corridor. It's also much easier to access the beaches like maracas bay and las cuevas. I recommend las cuevas, over maracas bay since the government was doing some improvement work and stopped so your not seeing the beauty of the beach. But stop in maracas bay and have the bake and shark.
If your in the Port of Spain area you will have access to Arapita Avenue or better known by the locals "the avenue" which is basically a street filled with bars and restaurants and people hang out daily. some of the popular spots are:
Aria, Roscoos, Frankies, coco lounge and smokey and bunty.
Also there is movietowne where there are different restaurants and minute shopping.
Then there are the malls like long circular mall and west mall
If you guys are into "boat rides" / "party cruise" which there are several every weekend on different times of the day. there are breakfast cruises, day cruises down the islands where you go to the little islands off the tip of north western side of the island and party on one of the little islands, then there are cooler cruises, you can attend any one you choose.
After a few days of this then i recommend you go Tobago via boat or via plane $50 USD but make sure and book in advance. Flights go almost every hour back and forth but they are always full.
In Tobago you can stay in the crown point area. Where everything is walking distance and most of the tourist congregate. You have the option of a guest house, tourist apartments, villas or hotel rooms. There u have access to the popular beaches and from
There u can go jet skiing, snorkeling, wind surfing or ride a glass bottom boat to see the DEAD coral Or go out to the middle of the ocean and bathe in the Nylon Pool where the water reach you waist height.
Once again IF your staying in Point Fortin your robbing yourself if your coming to "lime" or "palance". If you wanna relax and not be part of the REAL action stay in Point Fortin. If you want your eyes pop out your head seeing woman and have a good time stay in the north for a few days and then go Tobago to relax b4 u head back home.
Also don't think u can stay Point Fortin and drive to the action everyday because it's like an hour drive to go and come back another hour and that's if there is no traffic. Don't think of hiring a taxi because they will kill u with the fares.
I recommend A Few days in Point Fortin, the around Thursday come to Port of Spain stay in a hotel and Monday leave for Tobago for a few days.
Anyway any questions or help u may need further let me.
