Long Point Lighthouse, Provincetown

Long Point Lighthouse is located at the end of a very long spit that curls around from the top of Cape Cod and affords a measure of protection for Provincetown Harbour, though the Pilgrims were evidently none too impressed. The lighthouse is reached by means of a long 2.7 mile hike from the road along the spit or by boat. This quite satisfactory picture was taken from the end of the jetty in Provincetown. The light went up in 1875.
