About the Sandy Neck Lighthouse
Sandy Neck Lighthouse is a historic tourist attraction located in Barnstable, Massachusetts, United States. Established in 1826, the lighthouse has a rich history of keepers and challenges, including storms, ice, and erosion. The lighthouse features a forty-eight-foot-tall circular brick tower, and unique iron hoops and staves were added in 1887 to strengthen the structure. The lighthouse was eventually automated in 1931, and the original lantern room was removed. The property has changed ownership over the years, with the Hinckley family eventually acquiring it in 1950. The Sandy Neck Lighthouse Restoration Committee was formed in 2003 to preserve and restore the historic tower. Visitors can explore the lighthouse and learn about its fascinating history through keeper logs and inspection reports.
Reviews of Sandy Neck Lighthouse
"Would be five stars but it’s on private property. Cannot walk there. Closest view is from the beach across the bay. And forget about rowing across - there are signs for Great White Sharks EVERYWHERE!"
"You cannot get to this lighthouse the way Google takes you through the park. It is a 13 mile hike from the park and it is on private property with no access. The best place to photograph this is from the Barnstable Harbor."
"This is a great light house to visit but be ready to go off road and you need a permit to get all the way out. Also beware of the waters here. The Great White patrols these waters."
"Nice beautiful place But the lighthouse is not accessible by the public. I’m sure if I would’ve asked at the gate I would’ve been informed but I didn’t and therefore now I will have to let the consequences."
"One of my favorite spots on cape cod. Very little access there so you need to kayak in or walk trail 6 on Sandy Neck."
