Fort Charlotte is within easy walking distance of Ardastra Zoo and the Fish Fry area, so plan to do these in one trip out. The fort seems rather drab from the outside, but once you go down into it, there are a number of exhibits that have a ton of info on the people who built the fort and life... More

We went on our own after spying the fort while at the Fish Fry (Arawak Cay). Loved seeing what the soldiers must have seen. This fort is actually several forts so don't stop at the first building. It sits at the top of the hillside overlooking the bay. Walk past the cannons that still remain and visualize soldiers positioning them... More

You're here, so see the tourist history spots... great view, some interesting history... the guide was just (yawn) average at best. Still worth a stop on your "tourist day".

We visited here while on a cruise in October 2012. It was only $5 for a guided tour. You get some great views of Nassau from the top of the fort. The tour guide was informative but he only took us through part of the fort and basically hounded us for a tip. The part of the fort that we... More

We went early in the morning when hardly anyone was around - about 9:30am, and went with the guided tour. The guide was very informative, but ended the tour a bit abruptly with about half of the Fort left to go.Definitely worth the price of admission.

This was a stop on our cruise excursion. I'm not a history buff, but this was an interesting stops. It's a large fort, comprising two separate buildings, with a lot of areas to walk through. There are exhibits about what it was like for the people living there, some with interactive pieces. We weren't allowed to touch these as we... More

This is a small fort and not worth spending much time there. We went as part of a city driving tour. The footing isn't good for anyone with balance problems and if you are obese, there are doorways you wouldn't be able to get through.

Fort Charlotte was one of the stops on an excursion we did through Disney Cruise Line. The tour guide seemed like she didn't want to be there. What she told us was VERY rehearsed. The tour took about 5 minutes. It was really boring and nothing to see. I would not waste my time going to Fort Charlotte!

Interesting Fort. Walked with two teenage boys from downtown Nassau. The walk took about 15 minutes. We first saw an empty boarded up building. We thought this was all there was to the fort. It turned out to be an armory building associated with the fort. Further up the hill was the real fort (actually three forts combined into one).... More
