Fort Hughes, Coastal fortification on Caballo Island, Philippines.
Fort Hughes features concrete artillery batteries positioned along the coast of Caballo Island with gun emplacements facing Manila Bay.
The Philippine Department of the United States Army constructed Fort Hughes in 1914 as part of the Harbor Defenses of Manila and Subic Bays.
The fort preserves military engineering techniques from the early 20th century, with named batteries honoring American military commanders and veterans.
Access to Fort Hughes requires advance coordination with local authorities and boat transportation from the mainland to Caballo Island.
The fort contains original 14-inch coastal defense guns and a Japanese 120mm gun that remained after the World War II battles.
