Beautiful lighthouse. All the staff was very friendly great plants and trees to see and take pictures of. Lots of history to read about the light station. They recently a built pier to view the lighthouse from the water. Theres some renovations going on right now but still very nice. We had a great time.

Spectacular view. I’m 62 and the climb up the 105 steps was simple. Coming down the spiral stairs was a little more difficult simply because I’m right handed and the handrail is on the left. Definitely worth the visit.

This is a wonderful place to visit for history buffs and lighthouse fans. $12 admission gets you access to the museum, and the lighthouse itself. It's 35 steps up to the base, then 106 steps up the wrought iron spiral staircase to the top. The views and the 160-year-old Fresnel lens are worth the climb. Guided tours are informative, but not mandatory. Nice little gift shop, too.

This park is absolutely beautiful and very well kept. The banyan tree is breathtaking! The trails and pier is new with beautiful views. …

We lived there when my husband was in the coast guard. Is it now open property? Loved it! Own dock to chill on and our kids had a blast.

CJ Southerland | Mar 7, 2020
Anne Malecki | Mar 8, 2020

First... I'd like to thank your husband for his service! 🇺🇸 Open to the main building with gift shop (buy tickets in there for all access) & the museum (paid entry) with free parking in the adjacent lot, but gated access (with paid admission to the lighthouse and learning centers.)

Will they allow a senior to take their time climbing up to the top or do they advise against bringing anyone who needs extra time during a tour?

Malinda Busher | Mar 7, 2020
Curtis Stephens | Mar 8, 2020

Yes, it was not that crowded and you can take a self paced tour.

Maria Gonzales | Mar 8, 2018
