Plum Island Lighthouse Open From 1 to 4 p.m., Sunday, June 1st

The weather is perfect today in Greater Newburyport.

If you’re in the Newburyport/Plum Island area today, stop in and take a free tour of Newburyport Harbor Light on Plum Island Point from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.

Plum Island Point is located on the North End of Plum Island near the mouth of the Merrimac River.

The Friends of Plum Island Light are opening the lighthouse for the first tour of 2008 season. Newburyport Harbor Light, located at the northern tip of the island, will be open today from 1 to 4 p.m.

On clear days, the lighthouse offers views as far off as Cape Ann and the Isles of Shoals. You can also see Mt. Agamenticus in York, Maine. There is a short ladder to climb to the top, so sneakers are required. Children must be at least 5 years old and 42 inches tall to travel to the top.

Tours are free. However, donations to support the Friends of Plum Island Light, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and restoring the lighthouse, are appreciated.

Situated on the ocean, Newburyport holds a host of opportunity for the visitor. But instead of traditional hotels, consider Massachusetts timeshares. Resorts offer sumptuous ensuite appointments and amenities not available in hotels. Rent timeshare for an unforgettable vacation experience.
