Absecon Lighthouse
Nautical Sites, Atlantic City
Fodor's Review:
The 1857 lighthouse was designed by George Meade, stands 171 feet tall, and is the oldest man-made tourist attraction on the Jersey shore. You can tour the adjacent lightkeeper's house and climb to the top for a great view of Atlantic City. In winter, call ahead to check that the lighthouse is open.
