Fort Moultrie

Be sure to watch the 22 minute orientation film , it's a great way to get a great overview of the 171yr history of Coastal Defense in Charleston. Also a great way to cool down in the AC on a hot day.

Such a cool FORT ! Awesome to see that it was used past the 1800s & decommissioned in the 60s when handed over to National Park Service. Hidden rooms & towers makes this fort totally worth the visit.

This is one of my favorite National Historic sites . Exhibits covering our history from the Revolutionary War through World War II.

One of the cooler forts and you don't have to pay a ton for to see everything. There's a beach that's pretty awesome right behind the fort. Free parking too.

If your bring in your own flag or buy one in the gift shop you can have it flown at either Fort Moultrie or Fort Sumter.

If you want to see a historic fort without traveling on a ferry , this is the one to see when visiting Charleston! Has a great back story as well !

Photo Tip: Use a tripod and long exposures rather than a flash to get great interior photos, but be mindful of the other visitors walking around.

Cool fort to explore and really cheap ($5 for the whole family). Lots of great historical info in the visitor center.

There is a visitors Centre and the outdoor museum . Both sites closes at five and it takes about 1.5 hours to see.

Great place to visit. Walk out to the shoreline, you might get lucky and see some dolphins.

The different time periods are a blast, and the movie is hilarious

Ask a Ranger or Volunteer about the Cell Phone tour at Fort Moultrie if you want to learn more while visiting the park .

Neat to tour the fort and see the different stations.

Well worth the small admission fee!

Awesome venue

Don't sit on the grass like the signs say. It's full of prickers and they hurt!

Must see historical spot!
