Perched atop a picturesque bluff in Chatham, MA, the iconic Chatham Lighthouse stands as a steadfast guardian of the coast. Its rich history dates back to 1808 when the first lighthouse was constructed to guide sailors through treacherous waters. Over the years, the beacon has undergone several renovations, with the current tower rising majestically to a height of 48 feet.
A visit to Chatham Lighthouse offers a glimpse into the maritime heritage of the region, where visitors can explore the grounds and soak in panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean. The adjacent keeper's house, now serving as a museum, provides insights into the daily life of lighthouse keepers in days gone by. Whether admiring the sweeping vistas or learning about maritime history, a trip to Chatham Lighthouse promises a memorable experience steeped in coastal charm.
