Plum Island Lighthouse protects the delta of the Merrimack River, and was commissioned for the first time in 1788 with a lantern that burned whale oil. Its current form dates from the year 1898. In 1927 it began to work with electricity and was automated in 1952. As you can see the light it emits is green.
The lighthouse's surroundings are always accessible and the structure itself is open some days a year. There is a big public parking lot just crossing the street from the lighthouse.

Top North Shore Hotel Reviews

avid hotel Boston Logan Airport - Revere by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We were quite surprised how comfortable the beds were, the roo was clean, modern"

Comfort Inn & Suites Logan International Airport

10/10 Excellent

" The room was prettyclean, except for a spot in the bathroom on the floor and a smear of what looked like blood (a small amount) on the bed spread. We did NOT use the bedspread The breakfast was good and warm. Plenty of options. The pool was wonderful! It was warm and clean. I didn’t think it was necessary of the hotel to charge $20 per night for parking. It seems excessive. And there seemed to be plenty of parking available. "
