Ready to get your heart racing with a good morning workout!?! We have reserved the lighthouse for anyone who wants to climb: 10 a.m. on Sat, May 4. Details below, please let me know ASAP if you want to climb, 24 spaces, first come first serve!

We can accommodate up to 24 climbers. Yes, everyone needs to be there by 10AM. Here are the guidelines:
·         Please plan to arrive at least 10 minutes before your tour time in order to sign paperwork and receive instructions. Tours start promptly and you MUST be registered to make the climb, so if you are late you may miss your opportunity to climb.
·         Parking is limited so car pool with others in your group. Parking is adjacent to the lighthouse or in our new 18-vehicle lot 500 feet to the east of the lighthouse. (If you park in the new lot, PLEASE use the wooden walkway to get to the lighthouse, avoiding Caswell Beach Road. This is for your own safety.)
· Weather permitting (we cannot climb if there is lightning in the area or very high winds).
·         Everyone climbing the tower is required to sign waivers (parents or a responsible adult are required to sign for those under the age of 16).
·         Climbers must be at least 9 years old due to the steepness of the steps. (There are no height/weight restrictions.)
·         Sneakers or similar closed toe, rubber sole shoes are REQUIRED - absolutely NO sandals, CROCS, or flip-flops.
·         Climbers are required to have both hands free for climbing due to the steepness of our steps.
·         Complete tour usually takes about 30-45 minutes.
·         There are no restroom facilities on site (however, we have portable facilities at our town parking area about 1 mile from the lighthouse).
·         Cameras/video recorders/binoculars are encouraged but must be in a back/fanny-pack or fit in a pocket/on a belt (both hands must be free to climb).
There is no charge for any of the tours, however, a donation box is on site. All donations are used for the care and maintenance of the lighthouse and surrounding grounds. Donations are sincerely appreciated.  We offer “I Climbed the Oak Island Lighthouse” T-shirts to any climbers for $20 each (cash or checks, no credit cards), or $15 each for two or more shirts.
