Travel Instructions: From Highway 1A in Salem, 0.7 miles south of the bridge over the Porter River, turn east on Webb Street. When Webb Street ends, turn left onto Derby Street/Fort Avenue and continue to Winter Island Road. Turn right onto Winter Island Road and follow it to its end, where you will need to pay a fee to enter the park if you are not a local resident. After entering the park, stay left and the road will lead to the lighthouse. The lighthouse can also be seen from the water on several lighthouse cruises that are offered in the area. We took a cruise with Boston Harbor Cruises out of Boston that passed this lighthouse.

The lighthouse is owned by the City of Salem. Grounds open, tower closed.
