The back gate was locked, so from the beach side we had to walk quite a ways to get in & decided not to pay the entrance fee.

8$ each to climb to the top. Helps in up keep of light house. Tour guides are really knowledgeable and friendly. Nice view and a wonderful pice of history.

There are 3 lighthouses. This is the only one you can enter until the 3rd opens back up in the spring. $8/ person. We almost missed it while leaving the park. Totally glad we stopped. There’s also a gift shop.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Do you have to reserve your tour times to the tower and house ?

Judith Hermann | Oct 30, 2018
Shawn Mann | Oct 30, 2018

No. The tours are scheduled in groups of 10 about every 30 minutes. The circular staircase is very steep and contains about 75 steps. There is a less expensive tour that doesn't go to the top. Both are fascinating and informative!
