Built in 1847 on a site occupying military troops since 1736, kids can get a glimpse into the island’s past. Briefly occupied by Confederate troops during the Civil War, the fort was also used to during the Spanish American War. The park now offers guided tours, as well as a winding nature trail encircling a man-made pond.
