Beavertail Lighthouse Museum

Beavertail Lighthouse Museum Discover Jamestown's most visited landmark with its panoramic views of Narragansett Bay.

The first tower of what became known as the Beavertail Lighthouse was constructed in 1749, just the 3rd of the 11 lighthouses built along the Atlantic seacoast of the British colonies in North America. Located on the southernmost tip of Jamestown, Rhode Island, the Beavertail Lighthouse museum features a collection of information, artifacts, and conversation about the history and site of the third

-oldest lighthouse in North America. Come and enjoy New England hospitality as you engage with lighthouse history and with interesting elements of Narragansett Bay’s maritime science, technology, art, and culture. Visit our gift shop, and spend some time in the spectacular Beavertail State Park adjoining the lighthouse site.
