We spent 3 hours here and loved every minute of it. We had resarched it before our trip and magnificence of it didnt let us down. The history was facinating and the views spectacular. I especially loved the indentations of the cannon balls in the brick walls. The ground were flawless and the little trail to the John Wesley memorial was a pleasant surpise.

We watched the video first then walked out to the fort. Alot of ground to cover there. A soldier gave us a riffle demo and a little talk. Lot of history.

I spent a week in the Savannah/Charleston area and Ft Pulaski was the highlight. The tour was brief and informative. The guide was able to give an enormous amount of interesting information in a short time. It was almost chilling to be in a place where so much history took place. You can almost hear the cannons firing and officers barking orders at soldiers. It is amazing how the fort is in such good condition.

We arrived at 1pm, we made it just in time to watch the informative 20 minute video (highly reccomended) to get the history of the fort in the visitor center. We thought the interesting mounds/tunnels in the front were totally cool. Inside the main fort we saw all the different rooms, bunks, powder magazine and the important places. At 2:00 there was a musket demonstration (it started a little before 2, so make sure to get there early if you want to see the demonstrations-they just started once a few people showed up).

We finished with the fort at about 2:45 and went back to the visitor center for the gift shop. We thought it was strange that there was a book on John Wesley, but then saw the sign for the monument. It was on this island that he landed as a missionary.

The breeze was lovely and the fort was worth a tour if you enjoy historical sites.
