Wood End Lighthouse

We walked the jetty out, be ready for a decent walk, about 45 mins over the jetty taking ya time and 30mins to the little house with all soft sand. We looped to the water and back to the jetty totaled just about 6miles. Peaceful, quiet and relaxing. Be respectful, keep on trails and enjoy

Visit at your own risk. Apparently the tide charts are deceiving. I checked them multiple times before embarking on this journey with 3 kids aged 10-16. Even did research the night before. The jetty itself is a mess. Large gaps, slopes... questionable hops were made. There are some areas where the jetty dips down into the water... we reached the lighthouse and on our way back, the tide was coming in and our original path was gone.. we had to find our way back around to the jetty. And then the parts that were already slightly submerged in water were even deeper in water... it was a bit scary and what I tried to avoid with all the research I did. Very long journey there and back. Cross at your own risk!

The winds are blowing over the bay, the sun is scorching above the sand...After an arduous walk on a beautiful day with literally no comfortable feeling at all, I approached it, which was initially deemed as the Long Point Light, but turned Wood End Lighthouse in reality. I made a beautiful mistake, through which would be able to present the photos to all of you.

The beach at the end of the Causeway was beautiful and only 4 other ppl were there. It was worth the walk on the Causeway and through the sand dunes. Plus if I wanted I could hv taken the water taxi.

It’s a long trek across the jetty and sand to get there. The lighthouse isn’t in commission anymore. It’s a nice walk along the jetty’s when it’s low tide, you can look through the sand for shells. If you have any knee issues though I’d recommend not making the trek.

Passing by 7/30/2023 from Dolphin Fleet Whale Watch cruise. Beautiful lighthouse built over the sand dunes. Updated 9/21/2023: Did a night hike (around 8PM to 10PM)on low tide on 09/16/2023 via Provincetown Causeway. Remember to bring flash light. Saw the starry sky over the beautiful sand dunes and lighthouse. Very impressive experience.

A great little lighthouse! A little gem right at the end of the cape. This amongst a few others in the area. It takes some walking to get to and is a bit off the beaten path. Also easily visible during the Whale cruise.

Wood End Lighthouse is a hidden gem at the very tip of Cape Cod in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Getting there is an adventure in itself: you walk across a long, rocky breakwater that stretches through beautiful marshlands and offers incredible ocean views. Depending on the tide, the walk can be a bit tricky, but that’s part of what makes the experience so memorable. Once you reach the lighthouse, you’re rewarded with complete tranquility, sweeping views of the Atlantic, and the feeling of being completely removed from the modern world. The lighthouse is simple and historic, perfectly set against the dramatic backdrop of dunes and sea. Pro tip: Check the tide schedule before you go, wear sturdy shoes, and bring water and sunscreen — there’s no infrastructure out there, which is part of its unique charm. Bottom line: A magical, off-the-beaten-path destination for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone looking to disconnect and soak in Cape Cod’s raw beauty. I’ll definitely be back!
