Planning a trip to Trinidad? The best time to visit really depends on your priorities. If you prefer warm, sunny days with less rain, then January to April is ideal, with temperatures in the high 20s and low 30s Celsius. However, this is also peak season, so expect more crowds and higher prices.
Low Season in Trinidad
For a more laid-back experience with fewer tourists and potentially lower costs, consider visiting during the low season between May and July, or September and November. Although it's the wetter season, you can still enjoy the beautiful beaches and attractions. Temperatures generally stay in the high 20s Celsius.
One highlight during the low season is the Asa Wright Nature Centre, perfect for birdwatching amidst lush rainforest. You can enjoy the rainforest even if it rains.
High Season in Trinidad
The high season, from January to April, offers the best weather, with sunny skies and temperatures in the high 20s/low 30s Celsius. Carnival, typically held in February or March, is a major highlight, but it also means higher prices and more crowded attractions. One highlight is Carnival itself, a vibrant explosion of colour and music.
