Carenage is a town in the Republic of
Trinidad and Tobago. It is located in northwestern
Trinidad, and is administered by the
Diego Martin Regional Corporation. Located close to
Chaguaramas, it is more of a residential area than a commercial or industrial locale.
The name is derived from the practice of
careening (i.e., beaching, "carénage" in French) sailing vessels for maintenance, which had been done in the area for many years.
