Christopher Columbus was here in 1498
Christopher Columbus landed on the south coast of Trinidad on July 31st 1498, (his third voyage to the new world). The bay where he landed was named after him and a statue of him stands there. The bay is now part of Prince's Town Municipality and one of the economic development projects we are supporting is to improve the beach area for tourism. We spend the day driving around this beautiful part of the island. I could certainly see it becoming a desirable tourist destination.
