East Chop Lighthouse

Nautical Sites, Oak Bluffs


Fodor's Review:

The East Chop Lighthouse was built out of cast iron in 1876 to replace an 1828 tower (used as part of a semaphore system of visual signaling between the island and Boston) that burned down. The 40-foot structure stands high atop a 79-foot bluff with spectacular views of Nantucket Sound.
