Review:
The Absecon Lighthouse is the tallest lighthouse in the state of New Jersey, situated in Atlantic City at Rhode Island and Pacific Avenues. Visitors can take the 228-step journey to the top of the lighthouse and take a step back in time as they explore one of the country’s oldest lighthouses. Once at the top, they’ll be rewarded with a stunning view of the city skyline, as well as a look at the Absecon Lighthouse’s original Fresnel Lens, which was first lit back in the year 1857. There is also a gift shop, a Lightkeeper’s dwelling replica, and a small museum.
