Maracas Bay


Its not every day that a trip to the beach entails first driving through a primeval rainforest. But if that trip is to Maracas Bay in Trinidad, that is precisely what one experiences:


Huge towering rainforest canopy of many species



Magnificent giant bamboo culms!


Along the way you get glimpses of the coast





And right as you arrive all manner of food and sea gear:



A river runs through it

Finally there!
