For your safety

Georges Island is a fortification that features steep masonry walls, surrounded by a ditch up to 9 metres deep.

Please do not climb up on the walls or earthworks or out into gun openings. These areas are especially dangerous when wet.

Young children should be under close supervision at all times.

Be aware of steep inclines and watch out for low doorways, uneven steps, and floors.

Please note there is no smoking permitted on the island.
