Fort Sumter National Monument - Fort Moultrie Field Trip (U.S. National Park Service)

Your students may explore the historic fort via a self-guided tour and view an educational film during your visit. We show our 22-minute film every 30 minutes starting at 9:00 AM with the last show at 4:30 PM. From Labor Day to Memorial Day, we also have ranger programs available on a limited basis.

Reservations must be made prior to the day of your visit to Fort Moultrie. To ensure adequate staffing and to avoid conflicts with other groups' schedules, please make your reservation as soon as possible. To make a reservation, please call (843) 883-3123 x 20.

An entrance fee is charged to visit Fort Moultrie. However, bona-fide educational organizations with a reservation and visiting as part of their regular curriculum may qualify for a fee waiver. Ask a ranger about a fee waiver when making your reservation.
