Great visit but many parts of the fort are closed due to vandalism and safety issues. The park staff did a great job restoring what they could so far and keeping the visitors safe. There's a really great exhibit at the beginning with lots of great information.

Nice outdoor space. It is a short ferry ride to George's Island. Bring a flash light in order to fully explore the fort. Be sure to catch one of the many tours of the island provided by the National Park Service Guides. You'll learn a lot of interesting facts, they do a great job.

Enjoyed our visit. The for has no trash cans so anything you bring you have to take back out with you. Their is a beach near the ferry dock. The fort is a great example or early defensive fortifications. Many great views of the Boston area islands. The ferry ride provides wonderful views and is a bargain.

So glad we decided to visit. This trip to Georges Island was not initially in our plan when we came to Boston. However, we were looking for an opportunity to get out on the water a bit but the longer cruises didn't really interest us. This trip is about 45 minutes each way on the ferry. We had 2 hours on the island to explore before the ferry returned. Free tours of the fort are offered and our guide was excellent. She was knowledgeable and entertaining. She was also very good with our inquisitive son! We did not, but you could take a picnic to enjoy, there are very nice shelters with tables. There is also a nice, sheltered refreshment stand with basics like burgers, fries and drinks.

What a nice place! Very historical, you need to go to the Visitors center to learn more about the place and to see old items from the civil war and the second war eras. It was so dark inside some of the part of the fort that you need a flashlight to walk safely. I got scares a few times, but I can't tell if it was because of the dark and the ghost of the lady in black of because of all the kids screaming around.

Very cool fort with lots of plaques of information and many areas to explore within the fort. Don't forget to bring a flashlight!

This is part of the National park System and of course the rangers do not disappoint. The place is very well maintained, they have plenty of learning opportunities, you can wander all over the fort and just enjoy a great piece of history. The museum is very well put together and the staff is helpful.

Besides being massively attacked by mosquitos, had a good time exploring the fort. Definite improvements have been made since I last explored it 10 years ago. There are still however many super dark areas you need a flashlight to get through. Recommendations: bring a flashlight and Deet-infused bug spray. Natural bug spray only attracted them. 😣
