I visited mid April and the weather was a little windy and cold (+5c evenings - +17c daytime), but the views and the accommodati…

Since you’ve ventured across the cribstone bridge, there’s no sense in stopping now. Continue winding through the delightful cottages of Bailey Island to the dead end of Route 24 and revel in Land’s End – Maine style. As a previous employee of LL Bean, I’ve always been tickled by the nam…

Door County is an outdoor lover's paradise. The county is the "thumb" in Wisconsin, with Green Bay on the west and Lake Michigan on the east, with 300 miles of shoreline. There are 5 state parks in this county, with Peninsula State Park in Fish Creek my favorite. You can take a nice drive through…

The Absecon Lighthouse in Atlantic City, New Jersey is the third tallest lighthouse in the United States and the tallest lighthouse in New Jersey so I definitely wanted to stop there to see it while spending a couple days in the Atlantic City area.

This Pier Light is at the end of a breakwater pier on the storybook-looking city of Port Washington.
Originally placed in the late 1800's it was restored, replace, and restored again into what you see today. The base is quite huge with plenty of space from which to fish, sit and relax, and/or t…

One of the most readily accessible jewels of Maine lies in Cape Elizabeth, adjacent to Portland. The jewel is Portland Head - Maine’s oldest lighthouse, and perhaps it's most stunning. The lighthouse is open sunrise to sunset year round with no admission, because it sits in the splendid Fort Wil…

A moderate hike on Eastern Oahu with breath taking views and the near 100% chance you will see a Humpback Whale during the winter months. The hike is roughly 4 miles round trip and the trail is paved the whole way. There are a few steep inclines but well worth the effort. You can not to the actua…

One of the most memorable places I visited in Nova Scotia was Peggy's Cove. It really puts things into perspective as you stand there among large chunks of rock both rough and smooth; looking out across the ocean. Though the lighthouse is there for all to see, I would think the peacefulness the cras…

Cruising into the port of Nassau, Bahamas was this lighthouse.
This photo was taken in about 2003.
The whiteness of this lighthouse was magnificent against the turquoise water of the Bahamas! I did not see it at night to know if it actually functioned as a lighthouse, but it sure was lovely t…

For $2 you can climb the lighthouse and see this magnificently renovated lighthouse that was built in 1869. Still keeping the seafarers safe today, this is a functioning lighthouse in Door County, Wisconsin's peninsula.

i arrived at the lighthouse after it had already closed for the day, but the view from the parking area was probably even better than the view from the lighthouse (and free)! you can look out at a small bay/cove and see the lighthouse to the left and watch the red footed boobies flying everywhere. i…

Run up to the top of this 30m high lighthouse and enjoy the splendid views of the area. It's still in use today.
There is an access gate which is closed and to get in you have to buy a 'permit' from one of the guys there which was only a few euros and then he takes you to the top of the lighthouse…

The St. Augustine Lighthouse and Museum is definitely a great stop in Florida! The price runs around $8 per adult to climb a 219-step spiral metal staircase to the top of the beautiful landmark. Not only is it a great educational visit but the views from the top are well worth the climb. On top of t…

We decided to try going to Ocracoke Island in the North Carolina Outer Banks during the off-season in February 2006 for President's Day Weekend, since we did not have to take military leave for our visit to our favorite island and beach on the East Coast!
We stayed at the luxury lakeside cottages…

I had a spare couple of hours after finishing my driving assessments at Te Araroa so I thought I'd shoot out to the East Cape Lighthouse.

On the road leading to it, you'll see many people at the beach and a lot of streetside vendors. What people do is that the stop their car at one of the vendors, and buy wh…
