Plum Island Lighthouse protects the delta of the Merrimack River, and was commissioned for the first time in 1788 with a lantern that burned whale oil. Its current form dates from the year 1898. In 1927 it began to work with electricity and was automated in 1952. As you can see the light it emits is green.
The lighthouse's surroundings are always accessible and the structure itself is open some days a year. There is a big public parking lot just crossing the street from the lighthouse.

The Cove At Salem

10/10 Excellent

"Our room at The Cove felt like a small home away from home when my partner and I visited Salem for a weekend trip! Great amenities (microwave, dishes, and sink were a plus), and having a TV in both the living room and bedroom made winding down after a long day that much better. Joe and all the front-desk staff were so friendly and helpful. And it was only a ~15-20 min walk or a ~5-7 min Lyft away from downtown Salem! Would book there again."
