    I never really knew about this place till we wanted to take the Ferry and saw the signs. This is a really cool place with a lot of history. If you are a history buff or like WWII history this is a really cool place to stop and visit. I learned a lot of things I never knew. Also a great place to walk around and see some pretty cool views.

    There were many replicas of guns that used to be here. One of the guns was an actual gun from the USS Missouri. Near the guns I enjoyed photographing a mixed flock of birds, including juncos, chickadees, a brown creeper, nuthatches, and a yellow-rumped warbler.

    This place is an amazing piece of history. They have some really interesting artillery and it is a great place for kids to learn to learn. My son got to stand in the barracks where his great grandfather slept before shipping off to Italy as an MP. I'm incredibly grateful that it has been preserved and that I was able to share the experience with my family!

    This WW2 fort is a treasure! Makes you realize how close to our eastern shore the Germans were! Underground bunkers and large weapons up close - the size of these have to be seen! The nearby beach is beautiful and easily accessible. Not a war and weapons buff, but I truly admire and appreciate how my freedom has been so dearly fought and sacrificed for.

    I enjoyed climbing to the top of one of the 100' foot tall lookout towers. 360 view of the entire park. Also enjoyed seeing the many artillery guns they have spread out throughout the "museum" part of the park. Very nice some paved paths throughout the park. Easy access to the very clean nice sand beach. Very good time at this park. Also bathhouse located nearby the beach. So you can shower after swimming in the ocean.
