Maracas Beach
Encyclopedia : M : MA : MAR : Maracas Beach
Maracas Beach is one of the most beautiful, but crowded, beaches on the island of Trinidad. It is located on the north side of the island, an hour's mountainous drive from the capital city of Port-of-Spain. However, unlike many of the northern beaches of Trindad, Maracas Beach is protected by a deep bay and provides some of the best bodysurfing on the island.
One of the most famous aspects of Maracas Beach are the dozen Bake and Shark huts. Bake and Shark is a Trinidadian native dish that consists of deep-fried shark stuffed in a pocket of deep-fried batter. The queues to these huts can often be long, so be prepared to wait, but the reward is worth it.
