After years of debate and restoration efforts, the town’s iconic lighthouse is set to reopen this summer—not as a navigational aid, but as a fully restored Maritime History Museum.
The long-abandoned lighthouse, which last guided ships more than four decades ago, has been an enduring symbol of the town’s coastal heritage. Following years of fundraising and preservation efforts, the landmark will now serve as a museum showcasing the history of the local fishing industry, shipbuilding, and legendary maritime rescues.
“This project has been a labor of love,” said museum director Joanna Ellis. “We didn’t just want to save the structure—we wanted to create something meaningful for the community, a place where people can connect with the stories that shaped this town.”
The newly renovated space will feature historic photographs, interactive exhibits, and even a preserved Fresnel lens similar to the one that once shone from the tower. A dedicated section will honor the town’s generations of fishermen, including a memorial to those lost at sea.
The grand opening is scheduled for late June, just in time for peak tourist season. Visitors will be able to climb the spiral staircase to the top, where sweeping ocean views promise to make the museum as much a destination as it is a tribute to the town’s maritime past.
