    Pretty good hike up the hill towards the fort. The fort is very interesting on how the past handled war.

    A Great historical site that dates back to the days of Christopher Columbus. Well taken care of and just a great place to visit. Cost per day entry is $5 U.S. per person or $12 for a weeks pass which gets you into all the other National Parks including the famous Trafalgar Falls.

    Marvelous panoramic view of the Portsmouth bay below. Simply beautiful, great location for a picnic or photoshoot. Go with the entire family and spend a few hours. Explore the ruins of this war fort which have been professionally restored by our very own historian. Great location for wedding receptions. This has also always been the venue for the annual Jazz and Creole festival.

    Very nice place for easy hike with interesting historical and biological facts. Some view points were covered by high trees, so there was no view at all, but that's the nature.

    Very pretty, hence the dinner was right at sunset and our unwanted guest of bats inside was ruining our evening. Cabrits park historian continued to speak like it was a normal experience. Not!

    Good facilities and well maintained. But compared to most other things on island quiet lackluster. Hikes were mild and came to nice viewpoints, but nothing jaw dropping. The forest here was quite dry when we visited, so it gave a different perspective. If your visiting the "Nature Island" for the nature and jaw dropping views and are short on time you can skip.

    Great place to visit. Really well maintained. There is a bit of information on the building walls but would be great to have a little more about the history, still a great place to take kids.

  • 4/5 Lennard A C. 2 years ago on Google
    Short, mildly steep hike rewarded with spectacular views. Don't forget your site pass.

    This is a well kept historical site. There a lot of informational signs and artifacts to see. This is also a place that hosts weddings and events.

    Not very family friendly, expect to pay full adult price even for small under 8yo kids. When asked them for a family concession or kids price they started getting aggressive saying all around Caribbeans kids have to pay adult price whis is a lie. The forth is nice though. Hiking trials not very well marked and after rain very muddy.
