Ten Pound Island Light

Gloucester, Ma.

Having guided generations of mariners into Gloucester's harbor, the Ten Pound Island Light became a movie star and featured prominently when the movie The Perfect Storm was released in 2000.

The original lighthouse was built in 1821 and replaced in 1881. It remains operational today displaying a white light.

Eastern Point Light

For more than 150 yrs., the Eastern Point beacon has guided
Gloucester fisherman safely home from the seas. The tower and dwelling stand on the east side of the town's harbor on a long, rocky point of land that forms a natural breakwater.

The existing thirty six-foot brick tower, built in 1890, projects a white light mariners can see from up to twenty miles at sea. The flashing signal helps mark dangerous Dog Bar Reef, near the harbor entrance.

Cape Ann Light

Located on Thatcher Island, Rockport, Ma. These lights are among the oldest and most historic light stations in America. Their lights shone for the first time in 1771, before the Revolution.

Nearly 150 years later, the foghorn here may have saved the life of President Woodrow Wilson by preventing the wreck of his fog-blinded ship as it returned from Europe in 1919, following the Versailles Peace Conference that officially ended WW I.

The two 124-foot granite towers that stand here now date from 1861. Only the south tower remains active, however, its flashing red beacon produced by a modern optic.

Thatcher Island is accessible only by boat, but you can see the towers from Route 127A near Rockport on Cape Ann.
