Trinidad is home to 76 thousand "Trinitarios" (or locals), and it is the capital of the Sancti Spiritus province. This magical town was founded in 1514 and it became the third Spanish settlement in Cuba. Back in colonial times, pirates made frequent visits to Trinidad and used it as a base for operations, and it also used to be a slave trade center. Despite its controversial past, Trinidad overcame and become one of Cuba's most important cities due to its important sugar, tobacco, and coffee production. Not to mention, fishing and tourism is also a major economic activity in the region. Trinidad is today one of the most visited ports in the Caribbean; its unique traditional feel plus the warm and welcoming locals make it a top-notch destination.
