  • This place is great for everyone. It’s a decent size and the staff really do a good talking about the lighthouses and their history. You first start your visit off by looking at over a hundred mini lighthouses and then watching a 4 minute video about their history and the rest is up to you. The cost is adults $7 students with ID $4. I would recommend anyone to go here since it’s a great experience.
  • Great place to visit after a ride in the Staten Island ferry. Why not spend a little time and visit, easy walk from the ferry and close to several restaurants to get a bite before heading back to Manhattan. If you like lighthouses it is a must visit place.
