San Juan de Ulúa

It is good place to visit if you go to Malecon de Veracruz, you can buy a hat ($100mx), an umbrella ($100) and glasses ($100mx) in the entrance; also you can contract a visitor guide to get a best experience(which cost is around $400MX per 6 persons). Access cost for San Juan de Ulua is $100MX.

Place used to have an amazing scenic view to get there. Unfortunately the place is now surrounded by walls, factories and just to get there is 20 min more to your tour. No signs to know more about the place and very reduced parking. Is not worth doing more than once

We were not told ahead of time, but you must leave all food and drinks (other than water) in the ferry. Any candy. And the snacks and drinks purchased on the ferry as well. Unfortunately, my friend left her bag with candies just purchased and it went missing. Lots of walking involved. I suggest paying for the guided tour, very informative.

Historic place, only 100 pesos to enter, I highly recommend the visit.

This is a great historical place to visit. It's a drive from the city so take a taxi or other transportation vehicle. Restrooms are available. Only water is allowed inside the fort not any flavored waters. Recommended to go early as it gets hot later in the day. There are guides available outside of the fort.

Quite interesting fort! Very well preserved and with lots of history. It may require an hour and half to visit it. You’ll be under the sun most time, so be prepared. Totally worth to visit!

At least 450 years old, the existence of this fort predates the founding of Boston. The architecture corresponds to the military models of the time. It might not be as well preserved as other castle/forts in the Caribbean, but it certainly is worth your visit. I have 2 small children, and we found plenty to enjoy as a family in our 2 hour-long visit. You can hire private tour guides at the entrance, but there is also plenty of information online to inform you as you search its many nooks and crannies. It's well worth the 60 pesos entry fee.

Great place to visit and learn about history
