Fort Charlotte

Kingstown, Saint George Parish, St. Vincent & Grenadines

Fort Charlotte, located on a hill overlooking Kingstown in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, is the island’s best-known historic fortress and one of its most popular landmarks.

Built by the British between 1763 and 1806 and named after Queen Charlotte, the fort was designed primarily to defend against attacks from inland rather than from the sea, which is why many of its cannons point inland. Perched about 600 feet above sea level, Fort Charlotte offers spectacular panoramic views of Kingstown, the Caribbean Sea, Young Island, Bequia, and the Grenadines.

Visitors can explore its historic ramparts, cannons, and museum exhibits, including displays on the history of the Garifuna people. Combining rich history with stunning scenery, the fort is one of the most significant cultural attractions in the country.
