Fort Frederick Tours

You might be free to visit today, but Fort Frederick wasn't always so welcoming! Find out the story behind this stronghold and exactly what it was designed to defend.

This history-filled fortress is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Trincomalee. But Fort Frederick isn't the only highlight in the area. Marble Beach, Trincomalee Beach, and Trincomalee Harbour are some other worthwhile attractions nearby.
