If you are headed to Trinidad and Tobago but only have time to hit one island, which should you choose? Here\u2019s an overview of each so that you can decide where to spend all your sunny days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/11-unbelievably-beautiful-scuba-diving-destinations-in-the-caribbean\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> 11 unbelievably beautiful diving destinations in the Caribbean<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Beach winner: Tobago<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_34015\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-34015\" class=\"size-full wp-image-34015\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/iEnglishmans-Bay_Tobago.jpg\" alt=\"Englishman's Bay\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/iEnglishmans-Bay_Tobago.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/iEnglishmans-Bay_Tobago-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/iEnglishmans-Bay_Tobago-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-34015\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Englishman&#8217;s Bay, Tobago<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"Body\">Tobago is the more well known vacation destination, but that&#8217;s likely because Tobago is replete with the quintessential white sandy beaches that vacationers expect when heading to the Caribbean. Englishman&#8217;s Bay is one of Tobago&#8217;s most famous strands but you may also have seen its beaches on the big screen before: Tobago was the filming location for the 1960 film <i>Swiss Family Robinson<\/i>. The Robinsons\u2019 beach from the film is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Tobago-Hotels.d602308.Travel-Guide-Hotels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Richmond Bay<\/a>, while the pirates\u2019 beach is Mount Irvine Bay.<\/p>\n<h2>Culture winner: Trinidad<\/h2>\n<p class=\"Body\">Not to be outdone by its northerly counterpart, Trinidad is also a wonderful place to visit. Trini is much bigger, located further south and closer to Venezuela, and relies on industry to sustain its economy. While Tobago is the obvious choice in terms of white sand beaches, Trinidad holds plenty of the island nation\u2019s culture, history and wildlife. Trinidad is where you&#8217;ll find Port of Spain, the nation\u2019s capital and a remnant of Spanish colonialism. From here, you can visit the National Museum and Art Gallery to learn more about Trinidad\u2019s history and art culture, see artifacts from WWII and see artist renditions of major cultural festivals like Carnival. Port of Spain also has several urban green spaces and a vibrant and bustling nightlife, which isn\u2019t surprising since Port of Spain is the birthplace of our favorite rap goddess, Nicki Minaj. For direct access to all of Port of Spain\u2019s gems, we recommend the <span class=\"Hyperlink0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Port-Of-Spain-Hotels-Culture-Crossroads-Inn.h10408207.Hotel-Information?chkin=1\/23\/2020&amp;chkout=1\/24\/2020&amp;regionId=2854&amp;destination=Port+of+Spain,+San+Juan-Laventille,+Trinidad+and+Tobago&amp;swpToggleOn=true&amp;rm1=a2&amp;x_pwa=1&amp;guestRating=45&amp;sort=recommended&amp;top_dp=105&amp;top_cur=USD&amp;rfrr=HSR&amp;pwa_ts=1567616203820\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Culture Crossroads Inn<\/a><\/span>, located in the Saint James district.<\/p>\n<h2>Diving winner: Tobago<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_34016\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-34016\" class=\"wp-image-34016 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Diving-Caribbean.jpg\" alt=\"Young happy girl in snorkeling mask jump and dive underwater to see tropical fishes in coral reef sea pool.

You can also dive the famed <i>Maverick Ferry, <\/i>which sank<i> <\/i>to a depth of 30 meters near Rocky Point.
