This 19th Century historic landmark park called Fort Clinch State Park is named after General Duncan Lamont Clinch. On the first weekend of each moth, local volunteers dress as Union soldiers and relive many of the daily routines of the fort from the 1860s, in a living history exhibition. Visitors can take a guided tour of the fort or can wander through its many rooms on their own. Three campgrounds are available for overnight visits and a small gift shop sells souvenirs. Open daily from 8a onwards.

RV park only!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/18/09
Liked the park but there is no tenting area set away from the RV's like at good campgrounds. And the RV'ers have the place booked solid for a long time out. They will not let you use the youth tenting area even when it is empty. I would have really enjoyed the place but I do not like being surrounded by giant boxes with TVs going 24 hours a day.

We didn't camp but loved wandering around the fort and the areas at the beaches. Very cool and an undiscovered gem for history lovers and families.

Best State Park In Florida
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/08/07
The park is so peacefull and beautiful. The beach is so nice and there are so many bike trails that are very scenic. The fort is also very cool and they allow you to walk through almost the entire fort. We have camped there over ten times and will be back soon.

Enchanting
By Amanda S, 03/11/07
It is one of the most peaceful and beautiful forts I have been too. A few times I visited, there was a candlelight tour and a re-creation that really made you feel like you were back in time. The fishing, trails, and buildings are enough to keep you busy for a whole day!

pretty cool place
By libertine, 06/18/05
Fort Clinch is nice but the water is weird. I only say that because it's right at the mouth of a river that flows to the Atlantic. Otherwise, it's pretty nice. I think the park itself needs more signs because it's easy to get lost on the unmarked roads.
