  • What is up RUclips fam!! We missed you for a bit and hope you guys and girls missed us too :) Today we started our journey on the Diego Martin Main Rd(St. Lucien Rd), turned right and proceeded to the "Water wheel Rd" (on the right) which Lead us to the " Blue Basin Road" follow this Rd to the end and you will reach the Beginning of the trail to the waterfall. There is a park at the beginning of the trail where you can park your vehicle at your own risk. We also made a pit stop to the Historical 'Water Wheel' before trekking up to the Falls. We advise you all to practice extreme caution when going on any trail. It is always safer to go in numbers. Hope you guys enjoy this adventure and as always, "Stay Safe and Stay Adventurous"!!!!!!

    Thanks for reminding us of this important piece of history in Trinidad and Tobago! I think it is noteworthy to take a moment to remember the enslaved Africans who built that "Water wheel". River Estate was the largest and most powerful sugar estate and that wheel is reported to have been built in 1835. The enslavement of African peoples was abolished in 1833, after which former enslaved Africans served an "apprenticeship" period which ended on 1 August 1838 with full emancipation. It stands as a reminder of this and therefore important especially to those with ancestral roots. Respect.

    I was there a couple decades ago and I will never forget the experience climbing above the falls. I and some young guys from the area climbed on the right side and had to reach a tree branch to pull to the top . It was a wonderland of perfection ....with clean gray green rocks, natural formations of all kinds and a pool of silver bubbles in crystal clear water to rival the best set up aquarium! That was a special moment that I know doesnt forever like that. Great videos guys ur production is fantastic! Ur excellent Ambassadors of Our Island Beauty.

    Hey. Now saw this video on you tube. Lovely video. I grew up hearing there is a suction underneath the waterfall. I saw a few people, including myself used to bathe under the waterfall. There is a fallen tree log behind the waterfall, where bathers could stand up on, and just let the water fall on your body. Nice video, and keep up the good work guys.

    Great vlog! It was great to see the drive from DM main road to around the bend to St. Lucien Rd with the savannah (or was it just a sports field?) on the left. Imagine I lived in Diego Martin and NEVER went to Blue Basin!? I knew it exited but never got the opportunity to go. I know the water wheel, though I don't remember it being that huge. I went to DM Jr Sec further down the road past the trace that led to River Estate. Blue Basin is on my bucket list my next visit to T'dad. Another great vlog. Continue to stay safe!
