About this lighthouse

The U.S. Coast Guard lists Windmill Point Light in its current Light List as an aid to navigation, describing the structure as “Grey conical tower”. Light List entries describe the light for mariners; they do not say whether the site is open to visitors.

Awaiting verification: Wikidata gives 1830 as the year this station or structure was established. We have not yet confirmed this against a primary source, so it is not shown as a fact. See the Wikidata lead.
