One of our favorite states to travel in happens to be New Jersey and the Jersey Shore has 18 beautiful lighthouses running up and down their coastline. Some of these beauties are open to the public and several are not.

| Cape May Lighthouse |
The Absecon, Cape May, Hereford Inlet, East Point, Tinicum Rear Range, Sandy Hook, Sea Girt, Twin Lights of Navesink, Barnegat, Tucker's Island and Finns Point Rear Range Lighthouses are all open to the public. Some have "free" admission and other's charge a small admission fee. Many of them allow you to walk around the surrounding grounds for free too.
If you love visiting historic places, such as lighthouses...New Jersey definitely needs to be on your travel bucket list. We have visited 9 out of 18 of them on the list so far and hopefully we will see them all within the next few years.

That's a great list. I am glad you did not include the lighthouse at Atlantic City. Until a few years ago, i never been to AC. When we went, we wanted to check out of the sights, including the lighthouse. The pictures of it showed in great light. After looking for it, which is strange to begin with, turns out it is way off the boardwalk and it between 3 buildings. what a hilarious sight
