The Edgartown Light stands perched at the mouth of the harbor, watching over beachgoers and sailors alike. Today, it seems as though the conical iron tower has always been there, and it is hard to imagine Edgartown without it. Eighty years ago, however, the lighthouse looked very different and its fate was the subject of intense controversy.
A lighthouse keeper will be available and the doors will be open during designated hours. Parking is available but limited on North Water Street. The Vineyard Transit Authority (VTA) buses drop off on Church Street in Edgartown. It is a 10 minute walk to the lighthouse from this location.
