Weather

The temperatures in Trinidad are tropical and they range from moderate to hot only varying slightly for the rest of the year. Like most other islands in its location, the climate is controlled by the north-eastern tradewinds which regulate temperature in the region of 84 F in the daytime. This temperature later drops to about 72 F at night, Tobago is slightly cooler than Trinidad due to its location with respect to the direction of the tradewinds.

Temperatures rarely exceed the 90 F mark or go below the 70 F mark, so visitors to Trinidad should keep their expectations as well as plans for clothing in line with this temperature range.
