Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We turned off the road returning to Scarborough, to visit this fort and take a light lunch. You climb quite a few steps to get to the main viewpoints, which allow to you to see up and down the nearby coastline. If you are as old as I am, there are some seats where you can recover from the climb and admire the views. As at other similar locations, there is a summary of the location's history standing at the entrance, and a few cannons higher up. All journeys on Tobago take longer than you expect and stopping points such as this are welcome.

Interesting, there is a tomb here, as well. After we arrived home, we looked him up, and didn't find much information about him. Lovely trees, and views. Also learned, after seeing kites in trees, there are kite championships here in Tobago, just like the book "The Kit Runner". An awesome book, if you haven't read it.

The grounds of this heritage site that once were accommodating Fort Granby are well maintained and offer great views of the windward coast line (west) all way to the hill of Scarborough (Fort King George) and the French Fort which was one of the signal stations set during the colonial era.
Visiting the Museum in Buccoo, it is possible to view details of Site Plan of Georgetown the first Capital of Tobago and Fort Granby set to protect it.

To the top of the Fort, now just a hill, was relaxing, to see the blue sea, as far as the eye can see. Also great historical site as it holds the tomb of Captain M James Clarke. A nice beach with facilities to the base of the fort.

Just a few minutes drive from Scarborough, this little haven is a must see! Free entry, free parking and toilet facilities on site. Before going up the steps, take a seat on one of the benches facing the sea. The sea breeze cannot compete with AC—it’s absolutely refreshing! Up in the fort area you can stroll through the entire place admiring the trees and view overlooking the sea. The place is very clean with several garbage bins all around. Lots of benches and huts with tables too. On the other side beyond the white picket fence is a short trail that leads down to where the sea beats against some large rocks. It gives you a good view of the other side of Scarborough. A good place for large groups and picnics. There’s a small restaurant/bar near the entrance. The best time to go is during the week—we had the place all to ourselves!
