Definitely worth a stop if you're into lighthouses or really amazing coastal views. But like most lighthouses, it can be a punishing climb to the top. We went on a beautiful fall day (early October) and got some great photos. It can be a little touristy here in the summer, but it's far enough out on the coast that it doesn't get super busy out here very often. Also check out the lighthouse museum in Westport as well as the beaches and some great restaurants! Olympic Otter

The lighthouse is an interesting piece of local history. The attendent was knowledgeable and informative -- not to mention friendly. It was worth the short visit. The whole visit is 30 to 60 minutes depending on how many plaques you read.

I love lighthouses. This is an oldie, no longer in operation, with a 3rd order lens. It's unique, atleast to me, because of it's cupped shell shape. You can climb to the top and get a great history from the docent. The docent is not only knowledgeable, but passionate, and that makes a visit like this special.

If you like lighthouses this is definitely one of the more accessible ones and usually open to climb. It is one of the tallest in Washington. One negative thing, if you plan to climb with a little child. They need to carried up with a chest carrier instead of a backpack carrier.

$5 admission if you would like to get into the light house, and the guide explains anything you'd like to know about it. Most people simply take pictures from the outside, but it's worth it to experience from the inside. You're welcome to stay inside for as long as you'd like... Be respectful and don't touch the lens!

Tallest lighthouse in WA state. Interesting history. Lighthouses rock. Support them, pay the measly 5 bucks and go up to the top, well worth it. Closed to the public December through January.

We had a great time touring the Gray's Harbor Light! The admission charge is reasonable ($5/adult) and the guide is knowledgeable & fun to talk to. The view from the top is outstanding - of course - but the climb to get there is quite arduous, so wear comfy shoes!
