This is a self guided tour. The staff are very well versed on the history of the lighthouse. It's not a bad climb to the top and totally worth the trip up.

One of the quaintest lighthouses I have seen. It is located in the Village of St. Simons and creates gorgeous photo opt scenes.

Very interesting history of lighthouses. Climb to the top is manageable even for the elderly. However, it was really windy in March, so we didn't spend much time at the top!
