The Lighthouses of New England guard its beautiful shores. Since its first settlement, the dangers of this coastline have been some of the most fearsome Americans have faced. Shipwrecks here were common and New England sailors had little but their wits and luck to guide them. They needed sure markers to guide them through treacherous shoals and unpredictable currents. They needed lighthouses, and for New England, its very life depended on its beacons. For over 250 years these proud sentinels have offered warnings of danger and hope for safe harbor. In turn, they have become the very symbol of New England itself.
From the rocky coast of Main South along the shifting sands of Cape Cod, through the bays of Rhode Island, to the twisting estuaries of Connecticut - the lights of New England are more than romantic postcard pictures, they are beacons to the many changes in America's history.
