  • In this segment of my adventures, DRE TV journeys to the northeastern side of Trinidad to visit the turtle village of Grand Riviere. We spent one night at the famous Acajou Hotel, and explored the Grand Riviere Beach which is popular for leather back turtle nesting. We lounged in the hammocks, and enjoyed the tasty delicacies offered at the local Restaurant. Nature was present in every way, and we had the privilege to be a part of it with the feeling of safety at the hotel.

      It’s nothing to them because this is all they know, it becomes their normal. Our country is amazingly beautiful, it’s sad that sometimes after only traveling and experiencing somewhere else you start to appreciate what you have.

      That because the main focus is promoting tourism for carnival and Tobago no encouragement or intrest in promote tourism outside of carnival in Trinidad they hide all these beautiful places from the public its a shame
