Crime levels are high, particularly in Port of Spain, San Fernando and other urban areas in Trinidad. Robberies with violence, including assaults and rape, occur frequently. Cruise ship passengers should take particular care when walking around the docks in Port of Spain. Gang and drug-related violence, including shootings and kidnapping, occurs and can affect bystanders. Crimes of opportunity such as petty theft tend to increase during the annual Trinidad Carnival in February or March, and during the Christmas holidays.
Canadians should be highly vigilant in Laventille and at popular tourist sites such as Fort George and La Brea (Pitch Lake), where crimes targeting foreigners have also been reported. Incidents of gangs following cars leaving Trinidad's Piarco Airport and robbing travellers once they reach their destination have been reported. Deserted beaches and unpopulated areas (e.g. scenic overlooks) should be avoided, especially after dark. Extra care should be taken when travelling late at night.
Travellers should avoid visiting deserted and unpatrolled beaches due to the risk of crime. On certain beaches, security is provided from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. only.
Tourists and foreign nationals are also victims of crime in Tobago.
Visitors should seek the advice of local contacts and be vigilant, especially after dark. They should ensure that personal belongings and travel documents are secure at all times and that hotel room doors and windows are secure. They should not carry large amounts of cash nor show signs of affluence. Personal belongings and travel documents should never be left unattended.
In case of emergency in Trinidad and Tobago, dial 990 for an ambulance or the fire department, and 999 for police.

Sandy, read what I have to say and read it well.

You do a little research, and pack your bags and go and have a great time in Trinidad. Chaguaramas area is the Yatching community area. I'm not going to lie to you yes there maybe a few crimes but it is a lovely area with alot to do. Such as fishing, catching a trip to the small islands off of Trinidad. There are a few nice hotels and it is not to far from the city.

You have to past through Caranage to get there. Caranage is now under development and is up and coming.

Listen to me do as you would do on any vacation and be aware of your surrondings but you will have a blast. You will make new friends and I personally want to hear from you when you get back..

Don't forget to enjoy a Carib beer in St. James, and a Hott Shoppe roti is nice with a Red Solo.

Party till yuh drop and let the Posse know what a BLAST YOU HAD....

Do your reshearch and ignore the haters.

HAVE FUN.
