Since we got to the fort late and were only in the area for one day, we didn't get to tour the fort itself. However, the drive in and around the fort was wonderful. We walked out onto the fishing pier, walked around the outside of the fort and generally just enjoyed the outdoors. Nice place to visit and would... more

I have a 7 and 9 yrs old kid and we have been to clearwater beach and sarasota beach ,miami beach and several other beaches in florida. In my opinion sarasota beach has the best beach as far as the sand and whiteness is concerned. what made our visit to fort clinch state park extraordinary is the appearance of a... more

Thank heaven's for Ft. Clinch! It was about the only thing to do on Amelia Island Fernandina Beach next to walking on the lovely beach. Once you get past the awful smell of the paper mills, the long streach of highway packed with smokey logging trucks, the drive to town past all the old worn buildings in decay along with... more

Touring through the fort felt like you were stepping back in to time. The brick work and tunnels made you feel more... more

Fort Clinch was one of the highlights of our time in Amelia. The living history exhibit was great and the fort is a great experience for young and old alike. Very worthwhile. more

The staff is extremely knowledgeable and kind. I highly recommend this state park for both day use and camping. Bring your camera as the wildlife and... more

Wonderfully maintained historical site. A "union soldier" was on duty and showed us around, although he scared my 4 year old some. Very interesting and well maintained. Our kids, ages 4 and 6, were really quite interested in the whole thing. The drive through the park is also beautiful, to see the "real Florida" and the Amelia Island lighthouse. Well... more

While at the beach, visit Fort Clinch! We visited there recently and were delighted to find that Civil War reenactors were there. What luck....they made the fort come to life! They represented the Southern army....just in time before the Yankees came! It was much more interesting to hear their stories and converse with them. It is a well preserved bit... more
