La Brea Pitch Lake
1h · Admission ticket included
In deep South of Trinidad, we visit the small village of La Brea, where the Pitch Lake is situated. It is the largest of its kind in the world, and looks something like an elephant skin which can be peeled off! Our guide leads us around the site for one hour, making sure we don’t stand up on one of the vertical veins where the pitch is soft and sinking is easy. There are also spots for bathing in the sulphur pools (according to the weather).
Sewdass Sadhu's Temple in the Sea
20m
Take a short drive across to the Temple in the Sea and Cremation Site. Also enjoy a tasty, authentic roti lunch (not included in tour price)
