Public Behavior Etiquette in Trinidad and Tobago

Public behavior is generally relaxed and friendly, but loud arguments, aggressive flirting, and showing anger in public are frowned on, especially in busy streets, markets, and on public transport. People usually greet others politely, keep a respectful tone with elders and strangers, and dress modestly for churches, villages, and formal events, while Carnival is the main exception where crowds are far more boisterous and expressive.
