Love this place! We explore the beach side where you will find shell treasures, clean beach and plenty to explore! The current is a little stronger so be careful in the water, parking fills up quick so get there early. Certain times of year you can see lots of sea turtles gliding in the water, they also have an inlet side which is good for families and boats!
Mike (he was our Ranger) did an excellent job with telling us history prior to boarding the ferry. I'm so glad I was able to share this experience with my family on my birthday. (I can't remember the gentleman steering the boat) Make sure if you are in St Augustine you check this out!
Simply amazing! You have to get there super early for the ferry to take you across the water to get to the fort. We barely arrived on time and we were lucky to be the last ones on the boat tour. But it's totally worth it. The scenery alone is worth going (Got great photos). The fort is great and interactive with the guides telling you history about the fort. ( Also there is a awesome beach near the fort that is natural beach with no waves, beautiful scenery, and some wildlife. I recommend stopping there too. But it's gets crowded, so get there early.)
Nicely set up National Monument. Our ranger was very knowledgeable and I really enjoyed her informative speech about the fort. You do need tickets to get to the fort as you have to take a boat to cross the river but they are free on a first come first serve basis at the visitors center. Come early as they run out of space fast for the whole day. They have room for 40 people on each tour. The volunteers are super nice and provide a lot of neat information about the area as you are waiting for your tour time. There is also some walking trails and a picnic area in the trees. Well maintained bathrooms are also on site.
The fort was a great experience. The ferry ride was awesome. We were able to see some Dolphins and sea turtles in the river. All the staff we spoke with were very knowledgeable. Make sure to get there early. Passes are limited but they go every hour.
