Lighthouses in New Jersey

Lighthouses in New Jersey

Lighthouses in New Jersey is an itinerary along the coast of New Jersey.

Understand

The New Jersey Lighthouse Challenge occurs every October, which involves visiting all the lighthouses of the Jersey Shore and some on the Delaware Bay, along with a few lifesaving stations.

Some of these lighthouses are no longer functional.

Prepare

Many of these lighthouses are on land and could be reached by car; however, some of these are in the open ocean and require a boat to visit.
