Guide to Museums

The National Museum and Art Gallery in Port of Spain holds collections of art, history and natural history. In Tobago, the Tobago Museum sits within Fort King George above Scarborough. Smaller museums, such as estate and community museums, show local life, crafts and industry.

Many museums are small and run by dedicated teams, so hours can change around public holidays and special events. School groups and tours may book ahead.
