    This lovely fort used to be open to the public. It's an absolute crime that it's now only accessible by people wealthy enough to afford to stay in a 5* hotel :(

      Agreed, I always wanted to visit at least one of the forts but it seems they're all privately owned now.

      @@tenebrousnova636 I visited the Fort over 25 year's ago. Well worth the money even though now I can't remember how much it cost.

    I wonder how it was built? Did they hold back the water somehow?

      traderjoes they made a coffer Dam around it. Fort took 16 yrs to build. It's never fired a shot in anger. Got it'd own fresh water water supply below the sea bed at 24 thousand gallons a day. I have drunk tea made on the fort with the water. Tastes lovely.

    You should see it now inside! Radically different to when these photos were taken. Super upmarket 5* accommodation now from Amazing retreats. Well worth a visit albeit 5* pricing but then you get what you pay for.

      It's basically a hotel now, has 8 bedrooms, a bar, a wine cellar, hot tub, sauna etc.
