Things To Do in Arima

Fun fact! Arima is the Amerindian word for water, and it’s also the name of the small town in the east of the island of Trinidad, where I reside. Arima is generally a great place to live. The town of Arima itself is usually always bustling with activity, and one can buy almost anything there, as there are a variety of shops and stores, large and small, that cater to every need. Venturing to the outskirts of Arima, there are lots of interesting places to visit, for example the Asa Wright Nature Center where you can get a guided tour of the nature sanctuary. One can also visit the Aripo and Avocat waterfalls. Some places one would have to be careful to not venture, because as beautiful as our country is, we do have criminal elements. Overall, it’s a great place, especially if you have local friends with whom to explore!

Arima is very vibrant and fun! There are shopping malls, restaurants, bakeries, curbside food establishments and more exciting outdoor activities. Arima is a nice place or visit.
