Hi Colin
Think of it as a street party. The village comes totally alive on Sunday nights when Sunday School kicks in - nothing religious here. Sunday School is a loud, vibrant street party and an ideal way of sampling one aspect of Tobagonian social life. It starts at 8pm every Sunday evening when the Buccooneers Steel Band orchestra play pan for a couple of hours, but only really gets into gear about 11pm when the main sound system, which plays across the beach, kicks in. The music is primarily Jamaican Dancehall with the best soca, hip hop and R+B. A great place for people-watching.
Have a great trip and be sure to post a report when you get back.
