Explore Ledge Lighthouse - Boat Tour & Visit Inside the Beacon

Explore one of the region's favorite lighthouses.
Land by boat at New London Ledge Light and tour inside the lighthouse -- all the way up to the lantern. On the way out, see and learn the stories of several of our other area lighthouses. We return as the sun sets.

You don't have to be a Ninja, but you will have to balance on the edge of a boat and step up to reach the platform.
