The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is the southernmost island in the Caribbean archipelago. Located just off the north-eastern coast of the South America mainland, the twin island Republic is home to international greats such as Miss Universe 1998, Wendy Fitzwilliam; Cricket Legend, Brian Charles Lara; and Carnival, the Greatest Show on Earth. The larger of the two islands, Trinidad, has a boot-like shape, measures 37 miles (80km) by 50 miles (60 km), and is noted for having an ecological and geographical diversity that is unmatched in the region.
The capital city, Port of Spain, is the business centre of the Caribbean, housing the headquarters for a number of local businesses, a myriad of restaurants and nightlife entertainment like no other. The sister isle of Tobago is a stark contrast to Trinidad. Considerably smaller in size, Tobago is well-known for its coral reefs, pristine blue waters and white sandy beaches,the smaller island is perfect for leisure activities and an immersive experience with nature. An abundance of natural reserves in oil and natural gas has made significant contributions to the strength of the Trinidad & Tobago economy—making it one of the strongest economies in the region.

6 Reviews on “Fort Abercromby, Las Cuevas, Trinidad and Tobago”
Lovely nature, lots of steps and cannons and superb view of the bay. I can’t think of reason why should anyone miss this place.
There are some extremely old cannons, but that’s not the best part. The rocky bay is constantly hit by the sea waves and here the color of the water is like nowhere else around the island. Loved the crashing sounds of the waves, even more than the view and the story that our guide told us about the Fort Abercromby.
Parts of the fortress were still visible and the few graves up there witness about the rough past of the island and this precise place. The Rock is actually well visible from here, but I didn’t have time to go down there and plus there were other people taking pictures and fishing so I decided to stay up. The view is perfect and if you find any local there ask them to tell you more about the historical meaning of the fort.
We stumbled upon this fort just out of Las Cuevas accidentally, when we were looking for a nice non-crowded beach. When I saw the sign, I had to visit. It speaks a lot about the rough times T&T went through. Someone should take care of it because wild bushes grow freely everywhere around, but nice experience overall.
The only thing I didn’t like was the overgrown nature around here. It’s a lovely place and it seems that tourist like to visit it, but it really must be taken care of.
A historical place, with visible parts of what used to be the Abercromby Fort. It’s an endearing place especially if you are taken by actual locals who will tell you all about the place and introduce you with the rough past of the island.
