Caura River

The Caura River is normally very busy with people buzzing looking for a great river lime.  This river is situated in the Northern Range on the island of Trinidad.

Caura is considered one of the most popular location in Trinidad for a river lime with the most popular spots being at the abandoned pump house and are called Pool Number 1 and Pool Number 2. The river is so popular however that on a weekend there is insufficient space at these locations for all the people who go to this valley and so every stretch of the river that has a clearing is used for a lime, usually involving cooking at the riverside.

The atmospheric view of the tall bamboo trees provides great scenery and shade from the hot sunshine which you see barely peeping through the trees.

People normally leave their homes relatively early so that a good spot can be caputred for cooking, setting up tents and a good card game.

So if you're looking for a good lime try Caura River today!!!!!

  1. The last time I ventured to the Caura river, I was unable to get a park for my vehicle, so I just sat in my car and took in the scene. People were enjoying themselves. It is naturally beautiful place for a stress relieving lime.
