Wanted to pull this out of the entry for the Cape Cod Lighthouses.

From their site: All of the information you need on U. S. lighthouses, in one convenient place. Find basic info, photos, and links to official lighthouse sites, as well as links to some of the most informative and interesting websites and articles about the history, upkeep, and sometimes sadly, the demise of America's lighthouses and keepers. You can search by state or by alphabetical listing.

If they do not have your favorite lighthouse among the 700 or so entries in their system, you can write them and they can add it. Great site from Roland Babineau.

Cape Cod Lighthouses

Digging around for some information on Cape Cod Lighthouses. Thanks to Roland from the Cape Cod Store for sending along more links.

Lighthouses of Cape Cod (Jay J. Pulli)
http://www.elohi.com/photo/lighthouse/
Great photos (although not all are coming up right now on the site). The descriptions are about the visit and the photographs, rather than the history of the lights. Still a great resource.

Lighthouse Getaway

They do a great job on the site of presenting the lighthouses of different regions and states. Page for Cape Cod (and Cape Ann) has many great photos.

Lighthouses of Cape Code (birdsandbeacons.com)
http://www.birdsandbeacons.com/Lighthouses/CapeCod_Lighthouses.htm
Front page includes nice graphical map of the lighthouses on the Cape. Links go to other pictures, but few descriptions. Photos by Ann Searle including other lighthouses along the Middle Atlantic and New England Coasts.

List of Massachusetts Lighthouses

From the Maritime Heritage Program of the National Park Service. Great source for information and older historical photographs of the lights.

These are great shots of Cape Cod Lighthouses. They do not include text, but the photos (all available for purchase from the site) are beautiful.
