Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve, including Fort Caroline National Memorial, Kingsley Plantation, Cedar Point, Theodore Roosevelt Area, and Spanish Pond will be closed as of 5:00 p.m., Saturday, August 1, 2020, with the approach of Hurricane Isaias.
The projected forecast and potential for tornadoes, high winds, flooding, extreme high tides and downed trees, will likely create hazardous conditions. "Potential weather impacts associated with Hurricane Isaias are being taken seriously, for the safety of our visitors and employees. Timucuan Preserve will be closed until conditions improve," stated Superintendent Chris Hughes.
The preserve will remain closed until assessments of damage and risks to the public are completed. Current status will be posted as an alert on the park's website.
