Santa Cruz, Trinidad and Tobago
- Santa Cruz, Trinidad and Tobago
The Santa Cruz Valley stretches between Maraval and San Juan, along the Saddle Road. It lies between the hills of the Northern Range on the island of Trinidad, Trinidad and Tobago.
Formerly an important cacao producer, much of the valley consists of abandoned cacoa plantations or small-scale agriculture. The Santa Cruz Valley is considered prime residential real estate, and many upscale residential developments are spreading up the valley. Small villages that form part of Upper Santa Cruz are Cantaro, Gasparillo, Sam-Boucaud, La Pastora Settlement, Pipiol. Lower Santa Cruz consists of La Canoa and Bourg Mulatresse.
Many of Trinidad and Tobago's respected citizens come from this small town, including world-renowned batsmen Brian Lara and Dwayne Bravo, world-renowned athlete Ato Boldon, poet Eintou Pearl Springer, top parang band The Lara Brothers and Soca star Sanelle Dempster.
