You have to go at least once! Its very nice and kept up. The monument is a nice piece of history. There are walking trails that are awesome. Its pet friendly and you can bring your dog on a leash. It is $10 per adult and your receipt is good for 7 days, so hang onto it and you can come back.

This is one of my favorite National Monuments in the country. Great military history here and the fort itself is truly remarkable and very unique with a moat surrounding it. The hiking trail to view the Cockspur Lighthouse is really nice too. They are pretty strict about kicking you out of the area at 5pm when it closes so be sure to allow yourself enough time to see everything.

Very cool history. Rangers were awesome and had great info to share.

If you are in the Savannah area this National Monument is a must. Prepare to spend about one -two hours and enjoy the history and all artifacts. The Fort is surrounded by green marshes. If you have enough time take an opportunity to explore nature trails.

Well-kept grounds... They are trying to keep it preserved so they are doing some preservation work on the top of the fort.Plenty of walking to really explore the area.The visitors center is currently closed due to covid-19

This was a great small park. The fort is pretty well maintained. The upper part was closed though while we were there in Oct 2020. There is a short trail out to see an old lighthouse as well.

Very educational. The photo is of a 130 year old fig tree that produces figs still to this day. Very beautiful and big. This fort took on a lot of damages in its time and still stands today to tell its story. I think the schools should teach more about our trials of what our country stood for to get us this far and to keep our Freedom in our Country and not look at others take it away.

This place is so cool! I was bummed the inside was closed but totally get it with the pandemic. Looks like they were capitalizing on the down time with some construction improvements! As you go around the fort count how many cannon balls you can find still lodged in the walls-we found 14! We loved the engineering behind the moat and hiking out to the lighthouse was pretty! It was neat to watch a cargo ship travel up the river- they’re so huge!

Great place to visit. Interesting fort and history. Also jas some nice walks to add on to make for a fun day! Bring lots of water and comfortable walking shoes.

Great place to enjoy nature. Like you are stepping back in time. Great walking trails. Wish there was camping. Being local this will be a regular destination.

Awesome place to take a walk in history. Staff was very knowledgeable and Covid aware. Would definitely come back.

Due to some ongoing renovation a large portion of the fort cannot be viewed. The areas we were able to see seem very well preserved. We will probably come back when these areas reopen

Nice place with great historical significance. Usually takes 30 mins to 1 hour to finish the visit based on your interest in history.Will recommend it if you want to do a quick stop while you stay on Tybee island

I really hope that they keep up the great work with the preservation of the forts and parks. Everything was great and the park employees were so helpful and knowledgeable!

A beautiful fort with an incredible history. The park staff was very knowledgeable and friendly as we learned about the history of Fort Pulaski.

Interesting place to visit with interesting history. Lot of construction going on at this time but it was good to visit.

This was a great visit and our favorite fort that weve visited to date. The employee inside gave us a pamphlet and provided us with the important points of the fort/battle. Some of the exterior walls show where the fort was hit - theres still a cannonball sitting in one of the holes. Theres also a moat, drawbridge, old cannons, etc. If youre interested, you can also watch a 15 minute video and/or go on a guided tour. Id highly recommend visiting. The national park pass will get you in for free, if you have one.

A very cool piece of American history. The staff was knowledgeable, able to answer questions about whats not self-explanatory. One small complaint is about the path to the nearby lighthouse. Its not all that nearby and the path isnt as clearly indicated as you would think. Part of the problem is that the lighthouse isnt at all visible from many vantage points near the fort. So its hard to know whether youre going the right direction. We ultimately gave up on getting to the lighthouse but did meet someone along the way that made it there and back and said it was not all that great. Your results may vary

This is a neat site. The engineering feat of making this fort is impressive. This is partially open as of 8/26/2020 due to the Virus.

Fort Pulaski is hauntingly beautiful. Its easy to get to. Be sure to watch the movie in the visitors center to hear some interesting history. This fort is part of the Underground Railroad. It gets extra cool points for the moat around it. The Union Army first successfully tested rifled cannons when attacking Ft. Pulaski and the success is evident when walking around the outside of the fort.

The fort is currently closed due to Covid but the grounds were still open. Easy walking distance to all of the available things to see so this is a good stop with kids. Extremely hot and muggy in the summer so maybe take a visit during the cooler months. The cannon impacts on the east side of the fort are pretty cool. Will be back once things open back up to see the interior of the fort.

Nice place to visit with kids. I enjoyed exploring the fort and learning some american history. The rangers were also knowledgeable and ready to answer questions. I would recommend this place. If you have kids the Jr Ranger program is a great way to get them to interact with the location. When they complete the packet they even get a Jr Ranger badge. Its a great free program the park service offers. I also loved walking out to see the small lighthouse. It was great to see all the fiddler crabs.

My son was employed @ the Maintenance Shop. His Supervisor name was Candice.I only know First Name) She had a very powerful impact on him while he was employed with their team, to the point of him wanting to leave when the the job ended. I really appreciate all of the Staff @ Fort Pulaski National Monument for giving my son a chance to explore, experience, and see what the work force will pertain too.The Staff Was Awesome!!

We visited Fort Pulaski National Monument with our dog. It is very dog friendly for a national park - he is allowed everywhere except the gift shop, including the trails and fort. And he even got a treat from the entrance station. The fort is really cool and theres a lot to see. My favorite part was the maze of tunnels just before entering the main part of the fort. We also hiked the lighthouse trail out to see Cockspur Island Lighthouse. Overall, a great place to visit and must-see if visiting Savannah.

Large fort with interesting history! Beautiful area to walk around.

This is very well-preserved. We were greeted with kind staff and our kids were made junior rangers. Worth the trip!

Im not going to pulaski any punchs here. This is an amazing stop for anyone interested in history and nature.Bring bug spray and apply liberally as the mosquitoes are more hungry then my dog at dinnertime.Famous for being a test site of union rifled cannon fire. It lead the way in making forts like these useless. Also used as a p.o.w. camp. The Gitmo of the time.Plenty of space to social distance and a group of amazing helpful rangers that are more then happy to answer any and all questions.

We love history, so this was very nice. Lots of walking trails and beautiful scenery at the mouth of the Savannah River. The Cockspur Island Lighthouse is visible from one of the trails, so we trekked three quarters of a mile through a lot of mud to check it out. A fun time on our way back from Tybee Island.

Great place to tour and visit, lots of information on the fort, design and purpose of it

This was a real interesting place to see. Had a few nice trails to walk on. You could see the surrounding areas from the top of the fort. They were doing some renovations on part of it but not a huge portion.

The experience was good, staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The only down side is the renovation has some things closed.

We were not able to go in the fort due to Covid-19 restrictions. However, were were able to walk the permiter and trails. There was a table set up outside the visitors center where you could get maps. We enjoyed our visit despite not being able to go in. We will be back!

Quite interesting, we were not familiar with it before we came. It is well preserved with easy access. Lots to see.

A beautiful and historically fascinating fort. Not many placks explaining a lot, so i would recommend taking some time in the visitors center up front to read or watch the history film on it. There was a lot of restoration happening so some areas were blocked off and some had construction stuff laying around. Overall it was a great visit!

I am a big fan from National Parks. This Fort Worth a trip to go there. I love it.

Canon Firing! You need to see it. Its quite a process. The fort is vast and such a step back in time. If youre looking for some history, head over and see Fort Pulaski.

The fort and museum were closed but the troopers were well informed and super friendly.

It has a moat!! Any fort that has a moat is a fantastic fort in my book. We didnt do the live tour. We meandered around on our own to discover the greatness of this fort. The best part was being up by the cannons and seeing a bald eagle soaring over! How amazing is that?! And the lady that was in the gift shop was super nice even though we didnt buy anything. I liked my experience at this fort way better than the one at St Augustine.

If you love history... COME HERE!!! They did a spectacular job keeping this place in good order!! Love all the cannons and original wood work!!! Beautiful layout and so very appreciative of their love for local history! In love with this fort!

I FINALLY made it out here today, so glad I did, January 13th, 75 degrees F. Awesome weather for me to spend nearly 4 hours walking around the grounds and out to the Historic Lighthouse. I love the all history about the fort ! Just moved here from Philly 6 weeks ago so I learned about it before going there, not knowing anything about it, on the Savannah government TV channel, and now I live here. I was fortunate today, the mosquitoes apparently werent bad like I hear they can be when its hot. Wear long sleeves, bug spray, I prefer patchouli oil mixed with eucalyptus oil, keep moving and go out to the lighthouse, its less buggy out by the water . I was also lucky enough to be all alone today. Its so peaceful here !! Quiet, breezy, birds... Watch whilst you walk for the little sand crabs running around, I thought to be big spiders at first...lol Ill be back to fort as much as possible, I have a National Parks Pass . Buy some souvenirs!!! Slap a sticker on your truck or car . It takes a lot a love and labor to keep this awesome piece of History alive !! Enjoy it !!

Visited the Wesley Monument. Beautiful walk!

The history of this place is very interesting. We loved it and seeing all the big cannons was amazing!

Amazing place with amazing views. Lots of history. $10 for admission. Expect to spend 1-2 hours.

Very informative park ranger. Another great fort of colonial history.

This is a terrific place to visit, for educational purposes. The fort is tremendously well preserved, and the staff is ingratiating with comments and questions. Some of the Fort is currently under renovation and reconstruction so you’re on able to actually view of the ocean facing view from the top. The gift shop while rather small has a reasonably priced items.

Beautiful scenery with wonderful historic exhibits. Bring comfortable shoes and dress for outdoor exercise and exhibit viewing. The orientation video was informative and set the stage for our self guided walking tour. The lighthouse trail was well maintained and we felt the pictures were worth the 1.7 mile round trip hike.

Great place for hike. Beautiful trails. Fort is closed so dont k ow if worth the fee to get in.

This was a really spectacular fort to visit. The history is almost tangible. One of the exterior walls still contains a projectile from the war. Exploring the fort inside and out was a great experience and Id gladly return for missed photo opportunities. An extra gem - the jumping mullet in the moat.

Great place to learn about history of the area. Try to see the cannon firing if you can. Pretty cool.

Historical significance. Well maintained. Enjoy both the inside and outside.

This was so awesome to visit ! The inside of the Fort was closed, but was able to walk around it. We decided to walk on the Lighthouse Trail (1.7 miles) to see Cockspur Light up close. Did not know alligators are around, so be careful on the trail. The Park Rangers were very nice !

Great hospitality beautiful site to see.

Nice fort and grounds. Repairs ongoing due to recent hurricanes and tornadoes. Visitor Center still not open but the fort/site was closed for an extended period and its staged reopening is greatly welcomed.

I loved running around Fort Pulaski. My daughter loved running around gathering info for her Junior Park Ranger badge. The folks here are super friendly. Be sure to catch the cannon firing demonstration. Also be sure to hike the trails on this island. The whole place is just great for the whole family.

This is the first fort Ive been to and I was so impressed! We were able to see a cannon shooting this time and the staff were so well informed about not only operating a cannon, but the fort history. Its definitely worth a stop to see!

Old fort near the coast. Really its out there but they have ranger led tours, and relaxed pace. The effort is in good shape but they are also restoring what they can. Use your annual national pass to get in for no added cost. They also have a cancellation stamp for you nps passport.

Its like visiting the titanic... In that it was determined to be invincible by man... But God has different plans!

Such a fantastic place to go! Research before hand so you can time it right to see the Cannons fired. And make sure to walk around the whole outside and see the massive amounts of cannon damage! I spent 4.5 hours there without doing any guides or events. Just exploring with my 2 friends from Australia!

If youre in the area you definitely need to visit the monument. It has a lot of history.

Very interesting bit of history. Day we came we were only allowed to walk around it but sure inside much better!

Great place! Very clean! Rangers were extremely nice. The history just comes alive.

We were fortunate to get to visit a day before Veterans Day and really enjoyed this monument! We had a larger group that also included a child. We all had a great time reading and experiencing everything they had to offer. Everyone we spoke to was very informative. I highly recommend this place for anyone that hasnt been!

Very beautiful park. Short walking trail to the river. Small museum and gift shop. Absolutely stunning views. They often have people in period piece outfits. A little bit pricey admission fee, but if you have a National Park Pass you get in free. Dogs are welcome on a 6ft leash.

Well this looks like an awesome place to visit, but it’s not open. We told that there is not enough staff due to the virus scare. Pretty disappointed, but Old Fort Jackson down the road is open!

Very wonderful park with a lot of cool history. Take a walk out on the beach and pick some shells, there are plenty to choose from and apparently this is a good place to find shark teeth.

Splendidly interesting fort. Wonderful river front thats offers sightings of dolphins. Able to explore lots of places in the fort including exciting tunnels and gift shop. $10 admissions per person and is good for 7 days.

Great place to get out and learn some history and actually see what happens when a cannonball hits a fort of this size....due be cautious as there is some restoration going on inside the fort.

A very lovely place with great history and a nice way to get in a little exercise.

Excellent place to visit on a pretty spring day. There is plenty of walking for those who are energetic. The grounds are enormous and very nicely maintained. If youre a history buff like me, youll enjoy the historical information available as well as the guided tours. There are a number of great photo opportunities. We definitely enjoyed the visit.

Another great site managed by the National Park Service. Plan to spend a few hours walking the site. Check guided tour times before visiting as there may be limited departures. Take the time to walk out to see the lighthouse and pier while you are there. Bring water bottles as there arent any facilities outside of the visitors center. Picnic facilities are available if you want to bring a lunch.

Beautiful fort. Amazing history.

We spent a lot of time wandering around through the fort it is a magnificent piece of history! We had a tour that was very informative and educational, I learned so many different things about the soldiers and their situation! Truly worth the visit.

Enjoyed spotting an eagles nest there.. building were closed due to Covid

Really fun seeing this historic monument. The preservation of the fort is actually spectacular and gives visitors a meaningful enriching lesson into the past of our country. Get a tour with the rangers, we had Elizabeth and she was outstanding. She provided interesting little known facts that made the visit all the more intriguing. Very worth driving out to explore, wish we could have stayed longer but Hurricane Dorian forced the park to close a little early. Still an outstanding visit.

I loved it. It is really fascinating to even visit. Great people. Anyone visiting savannah/Tybee should go here. A quick suggestion is to go when its warm but not hot. Bring a bottle of water or you could buy one. Also they have a great gift shop.

I love this place. It is very historic. It is a civil war fort that was outdated for its time. The admission is 15+ 10 dollars and under 15 is free. Active duty is 8 dollars. If you are going take the free guided tour it is well worth your time. Make sure to walk the 0.2 mile trail. It leads out to the rumbled of the north docks. This is not a all day affair. I spend 3 hours here and saw ever thing. They also have a reasonably priced gift shop.

Cool place a lot of repairs going on right now

Heres another great experience for all the history nerds out there. Not only that, its still interesting for the mildly uninterested. There is a nice little museum at the entrance with separate bathroom facilities. Handicap ramp up to the entrance. Short walk to the fort. It has a real moat! Park Service tour guide was fantastic. His knowledge of history was uncanny. You can see sleeping quarters, ammunition bunkers and great views from the top of the fort. Plenty of cannons to see. Cannonball strikes at the side of the fort still visible to this day. Amazing.

Beautiful place and full of history. Find good spot to watch cargo ships go by. Lovely!

My husband and I spent over half a day here. He’s a history buff and couldn’t get enough of it. There’s so much to look at, it would have taken a lot longer than half a day to see everything. I would recommend going on a warm day. The guide we had was very informative, answered all of our questions, and had a great personality. We would highly recommend visiting For Pulaski!

This place is the coolest! It is a civil war battlesite and still has damage from Union cannons. Employees at the park are super friendly and always willing to help. At $10 per Adult, its a little steep, but the passes are week long and you will be happy to do it!

We had a fabulous guided tour with Ranger Jamie. He had so much great history to share about Fort Pulaski and how it came to be and what and how it had bern used and occupied over the last 150 yrs!

Great place to take the kids.You can walk the historic Fort, walk the trail to the lighthouse or walk though the woods to a beach to watch cargo ships pass, find shark teeth or just collect shells.

Very informative. Its hard to explain the visit to a battle ground for the war but it is a interesting place in history. A very beautiful historical site as well.

Though it was very cold when I went, it was amazing. There were many opportunities to interact with the surroundings and explore, though they were going through some renovations at the time. It was amazing for pictures too. I would recommend 100%.

Quick spot to stop and learn about some Civil War history. Didn’t do any research before we went and the staff was very friendly and informative. Got to see a cannon demonstration and tour the fort on our own and learned a lot! Highly recommended to anyone passing through with an interest in history.

Great place to walk and learn some history

Very interesting. Friendly rangers. Good walks to water and lighthouse.

L enjoyed everything about this place. The history is great, the video they show in the visitors center explains just how awesome the engineering behind the fort is the key to it withstand the barrage that it took. Recommend!

Great place for history. They are doing a lot of restoration.

Wowowowow! Incredible! Never have we seen cannon damage and theres plenty of it here! Stunning how much is preserved and well maintained. Blew is away!

Really neat fort. Keep an eye out for all the fish and blue crabs in the moat. Lots of rooms to explore. The battle damage side is a must see here. Walk around the outside of the fort to the backside.

I’ve been to a lot of places that hold history but none have compared to this one. The narrated tour made this place #1!

Very interesting place. If youre a history buff or interested military battles, this place is a must stop. You can get a real feel for how far they were from the forces on Tybee. I would recommend starting with the batteries on Tybee and then do the Fort to get a good perspective of the distance.

Nice walking trails. Good stop before making your way to the beach

The last of the brick forts. Very medieval looking on the outside. They thought the fort was safe with a river keeping enemy cannon shot away, but new technology, rifled cannon shells, gave union soldiers superior accuracy and they opened a hole in the fort on the 1st day of combat. Thus ends the age of forts.

Family friendly site. You can walk out to the lighthouse and kids can earn their junior ranger badges here.

This place is nice to visit if you like history. It is 95% authentic. You can see the actual damage from the fight from the Union forces. There are still some shells lodged in the outside walls. They do offer a guided tour. Not sure if it is free or not. Lots of knowledge to learn about this place. When you buy a ticket it is good for 7 days.

It was beautiful. To see history in real life. To see where the cannons hit this place during the war. The rooms they slept in. The jail the stayed in. The views and the mot was awesome. Definitely recommend seeing this place.

I live about 10 miles from the Ft. Pulaski. Its a great place to go for a walk. Lots of trails. And a wonderful beach. I always bring folks that are visiting to Fort Pulaski. It is amazingly well preserved and in parts restored. A must see if youre in the area.
