Chacachacare Island - Uninhabited Island

#mytraveldiary History of the island : One of the most beautiful, uninhabited Caribbean islands, Chacachacare is a part of Trinidad and Tobago. The island was named by Columbus as Caracol (snail in Spanish) after its peculiar shape. It is a part of the Bocas Islands spread between Trinidad and Venezuela. The island today has a lighthouse along with a functional radar station. However, back in the day this place was populated as a cotton plantation. It was populated by nuns nursing lepers as it became a leper colony later. My Visit: This was a very exciting experience. The water was nice the scenery was also pleasant. My friends and I were interested in hiking and as such we found a trail that we used to discover new locations. Although I liked the place and my friends and I had fun, from experience travelling to scenic areas, I think much more can be done to improve the tourist attraction of the place. In addition, some areas had garbage however I noticed on my second visit 'down d islands' the place looked much cleaner than my first visit. Overall the experience was nice but I hope if I go another time, there will be other attractions for my friends and I to discover.
