Welcome center was redone since we had last visited. Volunteers were helpful and full of interesting facts about the fort. You can't go wrong, it's free! More

Great place to walk around and explore... fascinating how inticate ths fort is and the skill and though to build for the time frame that it was built .... and take in the great view of the ocean from the top of the fort!! More

Do this with your kids if you are in the area! So much shade in the summertime and have them "imagine" the torture chambers! LOL!!! The beaches around it are pristine and superb! You haven't seen the "pinnacle" until you have been to Fort Macon. More

This was a really neat place to get a take on history and then relax on the beach for a picnic and have great views of the neigboring islands. Our trip was short, would like to have had more time. More

Very informative visitors center, video & displays. Guided tours. Great displays throughout the Fort. Fun for climbing around & viewing the nearby islands & inlet. Like the recycled Christmas tree erosion project. History Buffs: Don't miss this one! More

Ft Macon has served many purposes over the past 170 years, Great displays from all eras. Rangers offer edcuational demonstrations. Great new Welcome Center. Easy to get to most times. An excellent example of briack coastal defense planning from the pre civil war era More

Its a great park with a ton of history. I'm a bit of a history buff, so I could spend all day reading the plaques in the Fort. Remember to watch your kids, it's a Fort not a playground. More

We attended for the 150th anniversary of the Battle there and had alot of fun the visitor center is great as well as the fort. The beach area around is also great very pretty state park. More

We always visit Fort Macon,this year they did the re-enactment of the Civil War. More
