A cultura de Trinidad e Tobago é caracterizada por variadas expressões de identidade popular que refletem o encontro dos povos que formam o quadro de etnias da ilha. Este sincretismo aparece sobretudo na manifestações religiosas, nos festejos populares e no ritmo nacional, o som do calipso onde predominam as bandas (os naipes) de metais. Nesse contexto, o Carnaval, que acontece antes da Quaresma, é a festa mais importante e esperada, quando milhares de pessoas usam fantasias e ocupam as ruas democraticamente. Em Tobago, Julho é o mês do Tobago Heritage Festival (Festival da Herança ou da Tradição), uma ampla mostra da memória histórica, do folclore, dos usos e costumes, incluindo as especialidades culinárias.

Alfred Hubert Mendes, descendente de portugueses presbiterianos expulsos da Madeira no seguimento das perseguições a Robert Kalley, foi uma figura pioneira da literatura das Caraíbas.
