Located in North Wildwood, NJ, the Hereford Inlet Lighthouse has been a beacon of safety to mariners since the 17th century.
Today visitors can tour the lighthouse, including a walk up the short tower. (Visitors are not allowed in the lantern room, as it’s still maintained by the Coast Guard and remains an aid to navigation for mariners.) Looking out the windows on each level of the tower, the ocean, town, and gardens of the lighthouse can be seen. A short path through the beautiful gardens leads to the seawall, which can be walked and leads to the beach.
A fun fact about the Hereford Inlet Lighthouse – its twin, Point Fermin Lighthouse, sits in San Pedro, CA and is also open for tours.
