Quick tour of the lighthouse gives you a feel for how they work and lets you see a side of the cape that most people don't get to see. You get to climb the ladder up to the top and look out over the ocean. You also get a lot of history about the beach and the movement of the... More

I think It is really called the Highland Museum and Lighthouse (that is what is on the receipt). Fantastic view; great gift shop, reasonable price; long climb. Like most lighthouses, parking is a problem. Here is a street address for the GPS: 27 Highland Light Road, North Truro, MA 02652 More

Admission is only $5.....that $5 lets you into the lighthouse with the ability to climb to the top. I did it, however i have... More
