NORTH COAST ROAD On the north side of Trinidad, the road to Maracas Beach from the capital of Port of Spain is known as the North Coast Road (or Saddle Road). It is a drive you will always remember. It takes you through copious amounts of beautifully lush vegetation, and with the many stopping/lookout points along the way, you can get magnificent views of the Caribbean Sea in certain areas. Perhaps the best stopping point is Maracas Lookout with the best views of them all. A bonus on that stop is the local delicacies that are available for sale at that location. Photo Credit: Manuel M.
