"Originally active from 1944-1967. This 41 foot tower sits on the grounds of the UCONN Avery Point Campus. The lighthouse is located on shore at Avery Point, at the east side of the Thames River entrance in Groton, Connecticut"
"Great views all round, located on a beautiful college campus. Only complaint is there is people all around the light house so it's difficult to get a decent picture."
"Great views all around! The Red Fox was a great addition to the walk along the path and all there was to see!"
"You cannot find a more beautiful spot on the Thames River in Groton than Avery Point. I enjoy capturing photos of the lighthouse each time I go. It never gets old."
