Fort Moultrie National Monument. and other Sullivans Island, SC Things to Do Tips

We finally visited this fort in 2004 (photo 4). Up to then I'd only seen it from the water. The National Park Service website says that you can tour the fort using the self-guided brochure. And you can.

There is a little museum across the road from the actual fort, and you can take a photo of the fort from there (photo 5)

Interpretive signs are posted throughout the fort (photos 2 and 3). By using these signs and the park brochure, visitors guide themselves through the fort traveling back in time from World War II to the American Revolution. Ranger programs are given at various times."

The only problem with the NPS presentation is that I don't think that they made enough of the Revolutionary War victory that occurred here.
