Sandy Hook Lighthouse on Embarkation Day 2.0 from the Jewel of the Seas 14 Night Cruise to Greenland - September 15th, 2023 Pictures of the Sandy Hook Lighthouse from on board the Jewel of the Seas on Embarkation Day 2.0 - Friday September 15th, 2023. I was very happy to get these pictures with my longest lenses from my starboard side balcony. The later departure gave me nice lighting as we left. It is one of my favorite lights and one of the first ones I visited as a kid growing up in the Garden State. From the National Park Service, &quot;The Sandy Hook Lighthouse is the oldest operating lighthouse in the nation. The lighthouse was completed on June 11, 1764 due to the efforts of 43 prominent New York merchants. The merchants petitioned the Colonial Assembly of New York to request that a lighthouse be erected on Sandy Hook to guide ships safely into New York Harbor. The New York Assembly supported the proposal and passed an act to raise money through a lottery. The funds raised from the lottery were used to purchase the land and build the lighthouse. I was able to see a number of lighthouses in New York Harbor this trip. On board the Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas for a grand 14 day cruise to Greenland (September 14th through 28th, 2023). The cruise embarks from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, NJ) with an actual stop in Manhattan (a delay leaving NYC caused by Hurricane Lee); Nuuk, Qaqortoq &amp; Nanortalik in Greenland; St.John's, Newfoundland before heading back to New York City. — Sandy Hook Lighthouse on Embarkation Day 2.0 from the Jewel of the Seas 14 Night Cruise to Greenland - September 15th, 2023 Credit: cseeman

Sandy Hook Lighthouse from the Anthem of the Seas - (New Jersey) - November 6th, 2022 Pictures of the Sandy Hook Lighthouse from on board the Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas at the beginning of our week-long cruise. It was a hazy day and hard to see - but you can make it out. I hope to get better pictures someday - as this is one of my favorite lights and one of the first ones I visited as a kid growing up in the Garden State.

The lighthouse was completed on June 11, 1764 due to the efforts of 43 prominent New York merchants.
