“SPEYSIDE BEACH AND GOAT'S ISLAND”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Speyside beach is right next to Goat's Island. From Speyside Beach you can access Goat Island. Even though I did not get the opportunity to actually step foot on Goat's Island, from Speyside Beach I could of seen its beauty.

“To Swim or not to Swim!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed April 6, 2016

Great place to snorkel or just swim and enjoy the calm waters of the island. Not really much else to do there, and take a picnic as there are few places to stop and buy lunch.

“Ian Fleming's house”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 15, 2014

Small island off of Speyside, closed to the public though. The dilapidated house was supposedly Ian Fleming's, and it would make a great museum but no actions of late to move this along. Picture worthy, but the real treat is Angel Reef directly in front of the island facing Speyside.

“Small but Pretty”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 14, 2013

This is one of the few islands off the coast of Tobago, that has a structure on it. However unless you are adept at climbing, the rest of the island would be a bit inhospitable. It is very pretty to look at, and I almost wish that the building could be open for use for events.

“Our room had a view of this pretty island.”

Lovely boat trip. Enjoyed the roughish sea journey.Thought the house standing out on Goat Island once belonged to Ian Fleming but on investigation, discovered he didn't live there at all.

“Good Snorkeling opp.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 15, 2012

Tours to Little Tobago pop over to Goat Island for a bit of snorkeling as part of the package. There's a extensive reef around this island and visibility is great. Good snorkeling in front of the island with views of the Ian Flemming villa.
