Parking Notes:

No parking is available considering this lighthouse is located on a remote island. The lighthouse can sometimes be seen from the Great Wass Island Preserve in Beals, Maine. But, that said, it is best to view the lighthouse for boat or plane. Some rental services take visitors to see the lighthouse.
