NAGS HEAD, N.C. — The Bodie Island Lighthouse, recognized by its unique horizontal black and white stripes, will open for climbing this year beginning Friday, April 19.
Climbing tickets go on sale at 7 a.m. and may only be purchased on the same day of your intended climb. Tickets are only available for purchase here.
Completed in 1872, the Bodie Island Lighthouse is actually the third at this general location – built after the first two were destroyed. Helping provide light for the Graveyard of the Atlantic, it was considered the part of the NC coast in most desperate need of a lighthouse.
