I really did not know much about Ft. Pulaski and had been to Fort Sumter before... someone I know that is a true Civil War historian said we had to do Ft. Pulaski - boy am I glad we did! This is an incredibly well-preserved fort that was easy to get to and very inexpensive (as all National Parks/Monumnets are).... more

Thoroughly enjoyed our stop at Ft. Pulaski. Area is not "overrun" with tourists. You can walk around at your leisure and experience history. There are two daily ranger guided walks (11 and 3). Also a small visitor center with short film that describes the history of the fort. What a "hidden gem." Lovely walking trails. Felt like we had stepped... more

We visited the Fort and had a great time with our three young girls 6/7/9. Lots of ins and outs, and we walked all over the place. Make sure to stop by Battery Albright as well, nice walk, and you can see the cargo boats going by as well. more

This site is well worth a visit. The fort itself is an important in history. The guided tours let by the park rangers are a great way to hear the story of the fort. The grounds are well maintained and have lots of opportunities for easy walks and nice picnics. Allow for probably 2 hours for a basic visit or... more

This was a great piece of history for the whole family. My boys especially liked the gun demonstration by the person dressed in Union uniform (they switch the uniform each day). If you go on Saturday they also do a cannon demonstration. The views are beautiful! We went at the end of the day and I wish we just had... more

There are lots of reasons to visit this fort. It is of great historical significance, being the last brick built fort, and saw action in the Civil War. The tour guide was GREAT - really enthusiastic & informed. He wore a period uniform & kept everyone's attention, adults and kids. He was also very attentive towards elderly & wheelchair-bound members... more

This stop on our trip was enjoyed by all of us including a teenager. The beautiful scenery and history are everywhere! more

We stopped a Fort Pulaski on our trip from Ohio to Florida and the stop was well worth it. The fort is in excellent condition (a lot of times it seems there isn't much left of a place that's historical). The tour is a must as you will learn 10x as much as opposed to just walking around. You can... more

We also loved the informative movie, the gun demonstration, and walking around the inside and outside of the fort. Be sure to look for the cannon ball holes/indentations, and for the alligators in the moat! I would suggest bug repellant if you plan to walk around the outside, to keep the "no see ums" away, and good walking shoes! more
