About Cape Henry Lighthouse

Cape Henry Lighthouse stands as a beacon of American history and heritage. This iconic lighthouse, authorized by George Washington and overseen by Alexander Hamilton, marks the first federally funded public works project of the newly formed United States government. Situated near the pivotal 'First Landing' site where English settlers first set foot on their way to Jamestown, it offers visitors a tangible connection to the nation's origins. Managed by Preservation Virginia since 1930, ongoing efforts ensure this historical landmark continues to educate future generations about its rich past.

Make sure you go to gate 8 and read all the conditions of entry to the base. It was a chill event with some good history and the gift shop was cute and the staff were nice. Plan a little extra time for the security checks and shuttle ride.

Affordable with coupon price. Views are great and loved the little beachy lookout point. Didn’t like how we couldn’t get in the gate at 10am, like the website says, but waited 20 additional minutes, per the security guards.

Just be prepared for security screening as this is on an active military base. Real ID required. The staff and driver were fantastic. Well worth the trip

Friendly staff, and worth the climb. There are actually two light houses, but we are only allowed one for access. We cant get to the beach area, and its on a base.
