Check out the ten tallest lighthouses in the United States. These are all beautiful structures to see and most are open to the public and allow visitors to climb to the top for amazing views.
Today all these lighthouses are automated but in the old days the lighthouse keepers had to climb the stairs to the top at least twice a day. That’s well over 200 steps and if you have ever climbed one of these tallest lighthouses it’s a workout especially on the legs.
Three of the lighthouses are in North Carolina while New Jersey, Virginia and Florida each have two and the last one is in New York.
