Fort Weatherill Tours

Check out Fort Weatherill and learn about its role in defending the area. This structure has witnessed some interesting history during its time.

This history-filled fortress is free to visit, so you can have a fun day out without spending all your cash. However, Fort Weatherill isn't the only thing to see in and around the seaside area of The Dumplings. With The Breakers, Fort Adams State Park and Rough Point within reach, you may be tempted to stay a little longer.
