Cape May Lighthouse

Located at Cape May Point State Park, the 157-foot-high lighthouse is still an aid to navigation. Visitors who climb the 199 steps are rewarded with a spectacular panoramic view of the Cape May peninsula. The lighthouse was built in 1859. Visitors orientation and museum shop on site.
