The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is the southernmost island in the Caribbean archipelago. Located just off the north-eastern coast of the South America mainland, the twin island Republic is home to international greats such as Miss Universe 1998, Wendy Fitzwilliam; Cricket Legend, Brian Charles Lara; and Carnival, the Greatest Show on Earth. The larger of the two islands, Trinidad, has a boot-like shape, measures 37 miles (80km) by 50 miles (60 km), and is noted for having an ecological and geographical diversity that is unmatched in the region.
The capital city, Port of Spain, is the business centre of the Caribbean, housing the headquarters for a number of local businesses, a myriad of restaurants and nightlife entertainment like no other. The sister isle of Tobago is a stark contrast to Trinidad. Considerably smaller in size, Tobago is well-known for its coral reefs, pristine blue waters and white sandy beaches,the smaller island is perfect for leisure activities and an immersive experience with nature. An abundance of natural reserves in oil and natural gas has made significant contributions to the strength of the Trinidad & Tobago economy—making it one of the strongest economies in the region.

4 Reviews on “Fort Milford, Crown Point, Trinidad and Tobago”
Trinidad and Tobago have lots of forts and places with cannons, and Fort Milford is one of them. It is not too large and within an hour you can learn a lot about the island’s history. It is located on a heel from where you have a great view of the sea. It’s great for a quick stop and rest.
Prefect for a fast stop. If you travel to the island with children, here they can have tones of fun, running and playing around the cannons, while you can relax and have a great view over the sea. Fort Milford is a beautiful historical place.
Unfortunately, there’s not much left to see, only couple of cannons and old walls. Nevertheless, my kids loved the place, especially canons. The fort is located next to the Crown Point airport, on the island’s westernmost point.
A day long tour around the island. Few quick stops, among which Fort Milford. Besides the view, there’s nothing else here.
