Classic New England lighthouse set against wide ocean and salt-marsh vistas—great for minimalist compositions, reflections, and dramatic skies. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm light and long shadows; sunsets can silhouette the tower. Access is limited—views are typically shot from Plum Island beaches, Newburyport Harbor viewpoints, or by boat; park at nearby public lots (Plum Island/ Parker River NWR and Newburyport waterfront). Check tide times and weather; bring layers for wind and sea
