Keeping a watchful eye over the beautiful coastal village of Watch Hill,
The Watch Hill Lighthouse is located at the most southwestern point of Rhode Island.
The Watch Tower opened in 1745 and the Lighthouse opened in 1801.
As with most lighthouses, it has an interesting history,
if you are a history buff, you can read about it here.

These are spectacular photos of Watch Hill Lighthouse and the shore line. Thanks for these; I am saving them for the future.
I am a history buff, so I will check the link out. I find it incredible that the lighthouse is in such great condition being that old.
Blessing and hugs!
Such a pretty area and I love the lighthouse. I need to see waves over the rocks. Grand photos Debbie. Looks like you had a great time.
Debbie, Oh my, the water is absolutely gorgeous. Love lighthouses, and there is something about water crashing over rocks. Beautiful! Hugs!
O love the wave shots.The colors of the sky and water are simply amazing.
So beautiful! I do miss the lighthouses on the Great Lakes.
I love learning the history of our lighthouses! It would be fun to travel just to see lighthouses, wouldn't it! Beautiful photos!
WOW, I love these. Your trips and photos always make me smile. HUGS B
Wow. Your photos make me feel like I'm right there!
neat to see all the other buildings along with it, you don't always see that. Looks like there was a bit of choppy waters that day, bet that helped to keep things a little cooler. Beautiful skies!
What a powerful camera dear friend!
thank you for making me feel there!
truly enjoyable shots !!!
The colour of the water is lovely to see.
I always enjoy seeing lighthouses.
A great set of photographs here, thanks Debbie.
All the best Jan
That looks like a lighthouse people could actually have lived in and loved! Summer is so beautiful in your area!!!
