Plum Island Lighthouse protects the delta of the Merrimack River, and was commissioned for the first time in 1788 with a lantern that burned whale oil. Its current form dates from the year 1898. In 1927 it began to work with electricity and was automated in 1952. As you can see the light it emits is green.
The lighthouse's surroundings are always accessible and the structure itself is open some days a year. There is a big public parking lot just crossing the street from the lighthouse.

DoubleTree by Hilton Boston North Shore

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast buffet was fresh with good choices. The dining area was next to the party area where there was a piano for when the area was in use. Parents let their kids pound on the piano keys during the breakfast time. I'm sure that is not piano is there for and it should be made off limits to anyone other than its proper use. "
