Have You Ever Been INSIDE Pomham Rocks Lighthouse?
How many times have you passed by Pomham Rocks Lighthouse, a few hundred feet off the Riverside shore, as you walked or biked down the East Bay Bike Path?
How many times have you been inside?
This summer season, through the end of August, is the only time of the year that the public can visit this East Providence landmark. And tours conducted by Friends of Pomham Rocks Lighthouse are the only way to access this island light station that has been recognized for its historic restoration and preservation.
Learn about the important role Pomham Rocks and other lighthouses in upper Narragansett Bay played over the last century and a half, as they maintained the safety of mariners navigating to the Port of Providence. Explore the exhibits of historical lighthouse items that take you back in time to another era.
Step outside the lantern room for a panoramic view of the bay. The only surviving lighthouse in East Providence, Pomham Rocks Lighthouse is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Register for a morning or sunset tour at www.pomhamrockslighthouse.org.
