13 minute drive from the home. New Jersey's tallest lighthouse awaits you at Pacific and Rhode Island Avenues in Atlantic City. Take an amazing journey into time and above it all as you ascend the 228 steps of the Absecon Lighthouse, one of the oldest lighthouses in the country. You'll see breathtaking views of the Atlantic City skyline and up top you'll come face-to-face with the original first-order Fresnel Lens, first lit in 1857. The lighthouse's recent multi-million dollar restoration also includes a stunning replica of the Lightkeeper's dwelling, an educational museum, charming gift shop, Fresnel Lens exhibit in the original Oil House and expansive grounds.

Absecon Lighthouse is one of the oldest and tallest lighthouses in the U.S. (tallest in NJ and 3rd tallest masonry lighthouse in the U.S.). Built in 1857, it is on the National Register of Historic Places and boasts a 228-step climb to the top. The views, from the top, of South Inlet and the Atlantic are hard to beat. Make this a short stop on your way to the beach or Ocean Casino Resort. Admission is usually $10 per adult but there are discounts for children, seniors, college students and more. If you are in a group, you should check Groupon for deals. They close early and allow the last climbers through a half hour before closing. Don’t miss this historic landmark during your visit! It is a 5 minute drive or an 15-18 minute walk from our Eco Home Airbnb in Downtown.
