WAS HELD AS YANKEE BASE DURING CIVIL WAR....ALSO KNOWN TO BE WHERE GERONIMO WAS CAPTURED & HELD AS PRISONER. MY CHILDREN ENJOYED PLAYING IN THE OLD FASHIONED CELLS THAT ARE DUG DEEP INTO THE SAND. IT WAS COVERED COMPLETELY BY HURRICANE IVAN IN 2004,BUT;AFTER MUCH PROLONGED & TEDIOUS LABOR IT HAS BEEN DUG BACK INTO SERVICE ONCE AGAIN. I KNOW IT EASY TO FIND ONCE YOU GET TO PENSACOLA BEACH,,,IT IS JUST A DEAD END BECAUSE IT'S SURROUNDED BY WATER!
