Cedros & Icacos Volcano Exploration

A place worth visiting is the Cedros Peninsula, which starts from Bonasse Village in Cedros and extends all the way to the villages of Fullerton and Cedros.  It takes approximately 3 hours from Port-of-Spain to get there but it is well worth the long drive to know this magnificent unspoiled South Coast Scenery.

  • MUD VOLCANO
Although there is the deposition of silt from the Orinoco River, sea erosion continues to destroy the porous landscape and many of the coconut trees and estate building reclaimed by the sea.  At the top of Columbus Bay, located a few metres from the shore there are three landmark rocks referred to as the Los Gallos or the Cocks.  Further inland in the Cedros Peninsula, there is a chain of mud volcanoes.  The Galfa Mud Volcano situated in the Green Hill Area at Marie Street in Bonasse.  The Columbia Mud Volcano Fields consist of a series of volcanoes and found one mile inside a coconut estate between the villages of Fullerton and Icacos.
