It was about a 3/4 mile walk but great views
Nice walk from Pulaski
Walk to the end of the pier to see the lighthouse. It was cloudy with a little bit of mist. The lighthouse is amazing, but it would’ve been better to get up close. Was able to see it from the top of the fort as well.
Due to preservation work the Lighthouse is presently not open to visit. But a short boat ride, 10mins, on one of Derek's Dolphin tour boats is well worth the time for very close up visit to this historic icon. A must do.
