East Point Lighthouse, Heislerville

Our first time visiting the Lighthouse. The greenheads were out in full force and i had no bug spray! The nice ladies in the gift shop offered me some (just go outside to spray yourself down though) two of the three that were in there are local artist and some of their work is available for sale inside. We paid $8.00 each to be able to tour the Lighthouse (self guided). The two gentlemen there were funny, friendly and knowledgeable. It was a lovely view at the top! We will definitely return when the air is crisp and the bugs have left with the summer heat. Hope to get there near sunset to get some cool shots 📸.

My wife and I visited the East Point Lighthouse in Heislerville, New Jersey (part of Maurice River Twp.) on a nice clear day. The road to the area was long and lonely but it was in good condition and it was a beautiful drive. The signage was a bit confusing near the lighthouse, but it wasn’t too hard to find. The lighthouse was lovely and well maintained. The area surrounding it was very ideal for a lighthouse. I would have liked to have seen the inside of it, but I am not sure whether that is available at any time. I was glad that there was a portable restroom available (and in decent condition). I recommend this to anyone visiting South Jersey who is interested in coastal landscapes and lighthouses. It is a nice hidden treasure!
