Note: (a) Muslim festivals are timed according to local sightings of various phases of the moon and the dates given above are approximations. During the lunar month of Ramadan that precedes Eid al-Fitr, Muslims fast during the day and feast at night and normal business patterns may be interrupted. However, since Trinidad & Tobago is not a predominantly Muslim country, restrictions (which travellers may experience elsewhere) are unlikely to cause problems. (b) Hindu festivals are declared according to local astronomical observations and variations may occur.
