Nice article on one of my favorite lights! If anyone is planning on renting a 4-wheel drive on Nantucket, bring your credit card or lots of cash. I think the 4-wheel drive rentals are about $150 a day or more now. They usually have the beach sticker on them but there is an additional fee to drive over the sand. Last I knew it was $20 a day. I haven't been there in about four years.

Great Point is a fairly new light as it is a replacement for the original that was destroyed in a storm. It is in great shape and is in one of the most scenic areas of the island.

Thanks for sharing the article, Paul! I hope someday Harbour Lights will replicate this wonderful lighthouse.

Well if a family of four wants to take the tour that would only set them back $110! Seems kind of steep for a possible view of Tuckernuck, wherever that is. Not exactly a user friendly lighthouse. But I guess nothing on Nantucket is inexpensive?
