Seaside masonry fort with sweeping Chesapeake Bay views, a historic brick casemate ring, and the iconic Old Point Comfort Lighthouse. Photograph dramatic curved walls, archways, cannons, bay reflections and tidal marshes; sunrise and golden-hour sunsets light the brick and water. Visitor center open seasonally, free entry as a national monument; on-site parking and boardwalks make gear access easy. Weekdays and low tide reduce crowds; expect coastal breezes and salt spray.
