Fort San Felipe is an old structure dating back to 1609 when the Spaniards built it to to protect part of the then growing city. The structure is made of granite blocks with walls approximately 30 feet high. A wide stairway leads to the top of the fort where a concrete house structure could be found. Naval memorabilia including antique cannons and cannon balls decorate the lawns.

Hi,
What’s the use of just showing photos of the Fort San Felipe when you can’t even get in to visit?I understand that for security reasons tourists are not allowed inside the base but I believe a day should be set for people to visit the fort away from sensitive areas.
Thank you.
