Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park, founded in 1987, is a national park built around a fortress on a hill, and it is listed as a World Heritage Site. It sits close to Sandy Point Town. Children up to and including age 12 pay a reduced rate, so a family pays noticeably less than the same number of adult tickets. There is a restaurant on site. The catch: the restaurant can also be visited on its own with a wristband, but that wristband covers the restaurant only and doesn’t let you into the rest of the fortress, so buy fortress entry if you want both.
