Highland Light Tours

The original Highland (Cape Cod) Light was constructed in 1797, making it the first lighthouse on Cape Cod. The current 1857 tower is the third on the site, and recently underwent a major rehabilitation. Tours and bookstore operated by seashore partner, Eastern National. The site is open 11 am-4 pm, staffing permitting. The last tour of the day takes place at 3:30 pm.

• Children must be at least 48" tall to climb the lighthouse due to the height of the stairs and ladders. No exceptions.
• Climbers who are 17 years old or younger must be accompanied by someone 18 years of age or older.
• To keep hands free for handrails, no person may be lifted or carried.
• Food, drinks, and bulky personal items (e.g. backpacks, tripods) should be left in your vehicle in the parking area.
• Shoes are required. Closed-toed shoes are recommended. Flip-flops are not allowed.
• Pets are not allowed in the Keeper’s Shop and Lighthouse Tower.
