Goat Yoga

Nestled on a family farm on Pine Island in Bokeelia, Little Big Beak Farm offers goat yoga sessions that blend genuine yoga practice with the kind of unscripted animal comedy that makes for lasting memories. The setting is open-air and pastoral, with classes designed for all experience levels — complete beginners and seasoned practitioners alike find themselves laughing through poses while friendly goats wander the grounds.

Goats climb onto participants' backs during poses in a signature "goat train"

The resident goats each have distinct, funny personalities and display an uncanny knack for timing their interactions with yoga poses. The much-talked-about "goat train" — when multiple goats climb onto a participant's back mid-stretch — is the moment that consistently leaves everyone smiling. Despite being farm animals, the goats are notably clean and lack the characteristic goat odor visitors might expect.

Connie captures photos and videos throughout the session while Cigdem and Geri welcome guests

Hosts Cigdem and Geri set a warm, inviting tone from the moment guests arrive. Connie is on hand with a camera, documenting the session with photos and videos so participants can stay present rather than fumbling for phones. The hour-long classes run on Saturday mornings, surrounded by nature and fresh island air.

The Little Big Beak Farmers Market offers goat milk fudge, macaroons, and mulberry jam after class

After class, the pop-up farmers market is worth lingering over. The farm's homemade goat milk fudge — particularly the peanut butter variety — is a standout, alongside gin candied almonds, chocolate-covered strawberries, mulberry jam, and macaroons. The market appears on select mornings, making it a bonus rather than a guarantee, so timing a visit when both yoga and market align is the ideal way to experience this Pine Island gem.
