This is an unbelievably beautiful and historically significant place that we frequent when we want a quick day trip. The staff are courteous and the grounds are well maintained. Perfect place for peace and quiet during the colder months, even though it’s no less beautiful. I always love to sit on one of the benches and take in the breathtaking view of Sandy Hook. Absolutely love this place!

This place is great. There’s so much history, and the light house is spectacular. What a view of Sandy Hook! The staff is nice and they’re knowledable, the grounds are great for walking around, and they have clean bathrooms. Definitely worth the trip!

This is my third visit to the lighthouse and I still come away totally impressed. There is something about walking around a place with so much history. The view is incredible and you can see for miles from the top of the north tower. The pictures and historical display in the main building take awhile to go through but it is worth the time it takes. The lens on display at ground level(a huge bivalve lens) is incredible. It was actually installed in the south tower at on time — you have to wonder how they did that. 25 million candlepower and it floated on a pool of mercury so it would turn easily. When you see something like this you come away impressed with the abilities of the men that came up with the idea in the first place. The facility is free, but a donation is in order and I’ll definitely go back again.
