The Barnegat Lighthouse will be closed to visitors for seven months as the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection begins the restoration of the historic lighthouse.
Having lived in New Jersey my entire life, I am biased when it comes to describing our "Garden State" I of course think we have many beautiful locations here in Jersey, contrary to what late-night comedians like to say.
When was the last times you visited "Old Barney?" The Barnegat Lighthouse has been a visitor destination for a long time. The Lighthouse began with construction in 1835 and guided ships for years through the Barnegat Inlet.
