TWIN LIGHTS LIGHTHOUSE
AT HIGHLANDS NEW JERSEY
OFF
SANDY HOOK BAY


The Twin Lights Lighthouse, off Sandy Hook Bay at Highlands, New Jersey,
abandoned since 1951, have been opened again as a nautical museum.

The old stone towers were first opened in 1862 and was home of the first U. S. Life

Saving Station.

Guglielmo Marconi, had conducted wireless experiments here at the turn of the century.

The main attraction of the lighthouse museum is the 200 foot high observation tower and

many seafaring momentoes.
