It was amazing! The light was on and working... you coukd hear the sound echo down the shaft! No lights inside so it was a flashlight tour. So much fun!

I just love it words can not describe it amazing place to visit, the people in Hatteras i so proud of this land mark please come to se it

Beautiful view from the ground and from the lighthouse. Long walk up, but worth it. We were a bit disappointed to find that about half of the platform was roped off when we got up there, but it was still well worth the walk.

We love going to see the lighthouse! It's always an impressive sight. I highly recommend it! Climbing to the top to see the view is a must (if you're able)!

This was the best part of the outer banks, the climb wasn't that bad and the reward when you get to the top is amazing! Don't miss this when you go to the outer banks. Only side note is that kids under 42" can't go up.

We climbed to the top! 278 steps. The tallest brick lighthouse in the world. Great history and movie in the keepers house/gift shop. Take your time to learn all you can and visit the site where the lighthouse was moved from. Suggest you visit early in the day to avoid the crowds.

Our class went to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse during our class trip, and although the lighthouse was closed at the time, we still had the opportunity to explore the grounds and the gift shop nearby. The lighthouse and surrounding grounds were beautiful, and the picnic area, which we also took advantage of, is a great place to have lunch and... More
