Hereford Inlet Lighthouse
A Victorian 'Stick Style' wooden lighthouse in North Wildwood, surrounded by an elegant English-style garden.
Built in 1874, this lighthouse is not a typical tall tower. It is a wooden Victorian house with a lantern room. Inside, you can visit the keeper's living quarters and nautical exhibits, and you can climb a small tower. The seaside garden around it is filled with perennial flowers and is a popular wedding photo spot. Admission to the lighthouse is about $8, and the garden is free. It is located near the inlet in North Wildwood.
