Wood End Light

Near the very tip of Cape Cod, Wood End
Lighthouse is
now an unmanned light that sounds a horn to alert for fog.
The lighthouse was built in 1872 and the adjacent oil house
was built in 1896. This remote light can only be accessed by
a long hike. If you go, be prepared for hot sun,
biting insects and no drinking water.
