TT not serious about tourism

Parking is horrendous because the parking lot is uneven, frequently flooded and parking spaces are severely limited due to construction work taking place on one end.

This causes a massive traffic jam for beachgoers that extends up to at least 5 pm on a Sunday.

The traffic frees up once you are clear of the parking lot entrance.

Yet hundreds of people still descend on the beach on a weekend.

I was most embarrassed on Sunday when my family from abroad decided to make a rest room stop at 5.15 pm before leaving the beach, only to be told in a very rude tone that the restrooms close at 5 pm.

So visitors, I guess you need to make sure you do your “business” before 5 pm or face the dire consequences of a long drive home before you can get relief.

Oh and by the way, make sure you don’t get into difficulties in the water after 5 pm because it is my understanding the lifeguards are no longer on duty after that time.

When will we take tourism seriously? Only when all of the oil dollars dry up? But don’t worry, we are Trinis and we jamming still.
