The visit to 1860 Light Station was a very enjoyable stop during my week-day trip to Port Washington. First I drove up the hill from downtown to the light station but I did not find any designated visitor parking spots near the light station, so I drove back down and parked on the street at the bottom of the wooden stairs, and ascended the stairs. Nice views of the surroundings, Lake Michigan, and Port Washington downtown from the stairs. The light station was closed (being open Fri, Sat, & Sun), but I walked around the light station and enjoyed reading about the history of the light station. The outdoor displays are quite informative. The light station is very well maintained, and makes for a scenic and memorable view.See more..
4.5Port Exploreum(24 reviews) - Great Museum! This location was reported permanently closed Spent 1-2 hours Speciality Museums
This 3 level museum has more then expected! a lot of interactive pieces, great story boards & and artifacts. I really liked the downstairs with half the room built as a ship, and the video that is played. $5 to get in and worth every penny. The guy at the desk was really nice even walked me around a bit, showing different items and telling me the story line behind it all.See more..
