Castillo de San Marcos and Fort Matanzas National Monuments will be CLOSED starting Tuesday, Aug. 29, 2023, in anticipation of severe weather and potential impacts from Tropical Storm Idalia. While the storm track is unpredictable, based on existing information, park officials have decided to err on the side of caution and focus on visitor, volunteer, and staff safety by this preemptive closure.
For updates, please check park websites at www.nps.gov/casa and www.nps.gov/foma. Follow the Castillo on Facebook and Instagram. Follow Fort Matanzas on Facebook and Instagram.
