Review:
The Nauset Lighthouse is a historic lighthouse and landmark in Eastham on Cape Cod. The lighthouse is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. It was built in Chatham in 1877 and later moved to Eastham, where it was placed just 200 feet from the keeper's house.
Erosion proved to be a serious problem in that spot, and the lighthouse was recently rescued from the edge of a sixty-foot-high cliff and relocated to a new location 300 feet away. The lighthouse has been providing guidance to mariners traveling along the treacherous Cape Cod coastline for over 73 years, and public tours of the Nauset Lighthouse and the oil house take place on Sundays, May through late October. If you are wondering what to do in Cape Cod for couples, this is a great place to visit.
