• Chatham Lighthouse, known as Twin Lights prior to 1923, is a lighthouse in Chatham, Massachusetts, near the "elbow" of Cape Cod.
• The original station, close to the shore, was built in 1808 with two wooden towers that were replaced in 1841 in spite of questions as to why a single tower would not be adequate.
• In 1877, two new towers, made of cast iron rings, replaced those.
• One of the towers was moved to the Eastham area and became Nauset Light in 1923
• Despite the dangerous currents, major drop-offs from sand to sea, and summertime shark sightings, Chatham's Lighthouse Beach is not a swimming beach. In fact, swimming is highly restricted here and sometimes not allowed at all, for just those reasons.
• However, this enormous and ever-changing beach is perfect for hanging out in a beach chair, watching for seals, and long romantic walks.
