We went here on a cold, rainy day. And honestly, it was the most fun we had on this trip. I don't know what it is about this unassuming place that lifted our spirits or if it was something else entirely. But we had the beach to ourselves, lighthouse is what you'd expect (i.e. a building you can walk around) grounds maintained, beach clean and we'll taken care of. Worth a visit. Head over to Lexie's Place after for an excellent burger and dressed up fries. Shakes are...

We were here in the winter and there were no tours of the interior available. Still, it is a picturesque setting and if you can go inside on a tour the views must be wonderful. For history buffs, the Plum Island Lighthouse holds stories of maritime adventures and the challenges faced by early keepers.

Borderline hazardous. Not clean whatsoever. I have found razors, an assortment of trash, even burnt metal, rubber and plastic from what appeared to be from a bike. There is little in terms of signage to guide you in the right direction to the beach. This is the same for parking as well, no signs just an open portion of the lot you can drive through.

The lighthouse isn’t even on the water. It’s in a fenced in yard. It probably used to be seen from the water but the town has grow up around it. The only parking near it is a paid parking garage lot. It looks like it’s on private property but we saw a photographer and a family go in for a photo shoot. Definitely not the best lighthouse. But it’s a piece of the history.

Small lighthouse, hidden at the end of Plum Island. View of river nearby was lovely but beach area not accessible. Did stumble on an unexpected find in Plum Island Soap company. Delightful little shop with homemade natural products. Manager was very helpful and engaging. Small town of Newbury nearby.
