    Had an excellent time on a boat cruise to this place, music, food, friends and fun. We got to swim so it made it more special

    My wife and I were looking for an adventure and wanted to see more of the Chacachacare Islands off the northeast coast of Trinidad. The Crew's Inn recommended Greene (868)755-8972, the captain of the Island Princess. We were delighted that he was willing to meet us on the same day. We headed out from the Crew's Inn Marina at 4pm for a tour around each of the islands at sunset. The boat could have likely handled 50 people and we had it all to ourselves based on the short notice. It was a delightful evening

    If only the locals loved their islands like we do. Rubbish is everywhere. Here is a gem of an island, paradoxically accessible only some 12 miles from TTSA yet with a remote aura about it, yet strewn with rubbish despite it being uninhabited! 30 years ago it was a leper colony. When a cure was found overnight it became deserted. Empty, overgrown houses with beds outside makes it feel quite eerie. We were the only ones anchored on the island, the fireflies coming out after dark on a complete silent and moonless night made it seem as though spirits of long lost leprous souls were haunting the place. Unless you like the volume of reggae and rap music which make Ibiza sound like a string quartet.... leave the weekends alone.....the locals know how to party continuously! Weekdays are quiet and often this largish island you'll have to yourself. In season don't worry about food, mangos and coconuts abound

    Assuming the opportunity (your really need a private charter or your own boat) a visit to the island is definitely worth your time - there something to be said about these abandoned constructions and relics. Sometimes spoiled by partiers but definitely worth your time !

    I went to Chac about 10 years ago when my grandparents has a yacht in T&T. I was only about 11 at the time, and we spent a week out there. We were the only yacht and visitors there and I remember it being eerie but all fantastic. The whole island is abandoned. You can look through all the old houses, fire station, hospital etc, and I remember there being a strange feeling. There's a graveyard for the nuns and doctors who worked there, and I just remembered how it felt magical. Everything, except the hospital which broken glass bottles had been smashed across the hospital was in tact. You could even look through the hospital record book. It was hugely overgrown but I really want to go back there and take my children there, hopefully, it will still be there by that time. I would advise anyone who goes to T&T especially those with children to visist there. Not only for the overgrown, abandoned society but for the waters around it. I remember one night lying on the deck and looking at the stars- obviously there was no light pollution and I've never seen so many stars in my life. It lit up the whole sky, like it was day. Going swimming around the island, we saw dolphins, turtles, eagles rays and a variety of exotic fish.

    Located at the edge of the Bocas, this island is quiet and deserted save for other bathers or boaters. While Scotland Bay and others tend to overflow with loud partiers, this is a rarity here. There are beaches on different sides of the island, but the best are closeby the jetty. Go through the treeline straight from the jetty and you find a clean beach facing Venezuela just 7 miles away with good snorkeling off the beach and calm waters. The other beach is reached when going up the lighthouse road and taking a steep dirt path to the right and you come out on a clean, shallow beach. Other beaches are relatively inundated with trash and manchineel trees, so beware. The island is best explored with a guide. Trekking to the Leper colony ruins is a worthy trip. Another option is the lighthouse at the top of the road that starts right off the jetty. Keep in mind, the road to lighthouse has little to no shade so bring water and a hat as you will bake in the sun on the walk up. Views from the lighthouse show you the bocas, Gulf of Paria, of Trinidad, and Venezuela. When visiting the island, you need to bring all your gear and supplies as there are no facilities anywhere on the island. Functioning cell phone for emergencies is a must as well. It's an island steeped in history, and absolutely worth a visit.

    I visit Trinidad about once every two years to visit a friend living there. I was luck enough to be able to dive off their boat to swim through amazing waters and walk up onto the island. Explored fascinating old ruins and tracks and it really was just a unique and special place. Highly recommended!

    I was finally able to visit this island as part of a tour with Caribbean Hiking Adventures. It is a beautiful island that is slowly being destroyed by Trinidadians. But destruction aside I would recommend anyone to visit.The boat takes about 45 - 60 minutes with departure from Crew's Inn (in Chaguaramas). As you sail through the Bocas it is interesting to observe how the water changes from Tea Green to dark brown-black and then back to Tea green. Also as expected, some parts of the Bocas are turbulent and rough...this is a normal phenomenon.As the boat docks you are treated to a stunning view of the cliffs and sheltered bays of the island. Unfortunately, you will be greeted by mounds and mounds of thrash. The island is frequented by several party boats (in fact one of them was there while we visited). The intoxicated revellers drop their thrash all over the island and simply do not care. Others make an attempt to use the bins provided but these bins are over flowing...an indication that they are not emptied at all.Problems aside there are many things to do. If you are fit enough, I recommend making the trek up the road to the lighthouse. Be warned, this road can be a challenge...hiking in the forest is different to hiking up a paved road. The midday sun makes this trek insanely difficult. Stay hydrated and you will make it eventually. At the top you will get stunning views of mainland Venezuela as well as Huevos, Monos and mainland Trinidad.On your way back down...take some time to observe the vegetation. There are a lot of Cacti...similar to Isla Margarita.Of course no trip to Chacachacare would be complete without a sea bath at La Tinta Bay. This Bay is shallow and calm. Its perfect for families. However there are some poisonous trees growing on the shore and again...thrash is strewn everywhere.Nonetheless, Chacachacare is awesome! I recommend it to anyone!

    This is a great location for many activities. Camping for a long weekend or spending the day with friends and family. Learn about Trinidad's history. Take a hike to different parts of the island such as various bay, the salt pond, or see the amazing view from the light house. Excellent fishing from different points. Snorkel to your delight as there are many wonderful fishes and under water life to experience. Build camp fire from fallen trees. I have done all of the above and I will continue to do so. I would love others to share in this joy so I hope you all go out and enjoy. Remember please love the environment and take your garbage off the island when you leave.

    We were lucky to hop on the Treasure Queen Tour boat..what a surprise to find more than 100 people on the 3 deck Cruiser, having a sound system that blew us away...Trini's had a party, "Wining on da cruiser" and they made sure we joined them..with security guards, staff and a DJ asking people not to drink too much, we felt safe and made a lot of friends..they had a bar and food and when we arrived at Chacachacare island, a walk through nature and silence with spectacular views of the ocean were just what we needed..soft rain brought beautiful birds and butterflies to enjoy the drops on the luscious plants. Again, littering on the several beaches were Schocking.. The staff of the cruiser picked up after the Trini's..The ocean were warm and we cooled off after the walk. The boat leaves Chacachacare at 3.30 and arrives at 5pm. On our way back dolphins were playing all along the boat and that made the day complete. We paid 300 Trinidad Dollars for the 2 of us, and it is worth every dollar. A small boat charges 800 dollars and it is not as safe as the big cruiser.

    we took a cruise down to the islands, which involved sailing through Five Islands, Diego Islands and we sailed past Gasparee, Monos and Huevos, took 3 hrs to reach chacachacare. the boat we went with, Harbour Master, can sail up to the shore and dock, so all we did was walk off the boat and we were on the beach. theres a road that leads up to the light house on the island, we didnt have the time to do that. BEST: its beautiful, warm clear waters....SADDEST sight was the pollution, garbage in piles on the island...disgusting. we as a nation do not care about the environment, otherwise we would pick up after ourselves and not leave bags on garbage on a deserted island. if you get motion sickness, the waters are very rough.if you're interested in facts of the island i would advise going with a tour guide because i had to read up on the islands online.

    A pretty little islet off the coast of port of spain.You can hire a boat to take you there for about US$10-20 based on what time of day and season.Nice beach and some abandoned houses.Locals swear that the island is haunted. I did not get a chance to spend the night nor did I see/hear anything unusual, but would not mind going back to spend a night camping to experience it.
  • IRISHTRINI
    i go here every single sunday with the children and my partner. we have a yacht and to get to chac you need a boat or access to same. do not hire a local boat without noting the price. again beautiful, serene and calming area. water is magnificient and several old building on the island for discovery

    Before I landed in Trinidad I had kept seeing Chacachacare on the internet as somewhere to visit when in the area. So we did and it didnt disappoint.Our little boat took us out past the other islands and when we reached our first stop we were amazed of the view we had from the beach which looked over to Venezuela.We then headed to a haunted area of the convent, living quaters and hospital. Putting aside the grafitti over all of the walls it did feel really eerie and like we almost shouldnt be there. The paths leading up to the areas are quite overgrown so wear long trousers if you do not like being bitten or scratched by stinging nettles.If taking a tour around the prison island I would definitely recommend taking some travel sickness tablets (look out for Gravel in local pharmacies, its great stuff) as the waters can get a bit rough.
