It is home to the tallest lighthouse in the U.S.; 80% of it's over 19,500 acres is undeveloped public park land, and it has a special environment nurturing a diverse selection of plants, animals, birds, marine life, and even people. Land and water recreation, dining, an active nightlife, and shopping opportunities abound here. The best way to arrive on the island is by watercraft; however parking is available in parking lot # 5 at the end of the Causeway. Although dogs are not allowed in the lighthouse or other park buildings, they are allowed to enjoy the miles of boardwalks, trails, beaches, and self-guided nature walks. Dogs may not be in life-guarded areas of the beach, picnic or wildlife habitat areas, and they must be on no more than a 6 foot leash in the park area and cleaned up after at all times. Dogs must be well behaved and not left unattended at any time or tied to any park facilities.
