Goodbye to the Island is the fourth studio album by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, issued in January 1981, her final album for RCA Records. Ronnie Scott and Steve Wolfe wrote the majority of songs for the album, and co-produced the record with Hugh Murphy.

Music critics described the album as "more upbeat" than her previous album Diamond Cut (1979). Goodbye to the Island had the weakest sales of all albums Tyler released through RCA, only charting in Norway at number 38.
