Lighthouses of Cape Ann and Newburyport, Massachusetts, Tour

After leaving the parking garage in downtown Portsmouth, NH, we'll head to Eastern Point Lighthouse in Gloucester, Massachusetts, America's oldest fishing port.

Next stop is the pretty Annisquam Lighthouse, followed by a visit to Rockport's famous Bearskin Neck, where you can browse the shops and enjoy some local seafood.

After lunch, we'll head to Newburyport, one of New England's most attractive seaports. We'll drive across the causeway to Plum Island to view the Plum Island Lighthouse. We'll also stop at the Newburyport Range Lights, and you'll have some time to visit the shops of downtown Newburyport.

Before returning to downtown Portsmouth, we'll visit Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouse in New Castle, NH, where you'll have the opportunity to climb to the top to enjoy a magnificent view encompassing three states.

(Lunch cost is not included in the ticket price.)
