Summer library museum pass adventure: visit the Fire Island Lighthouse and climb to the top! ☀️ 🌊

The views were totally worth the 182 steps. 😅

The museum pass gets you to the top of the Fire Island Lighthouse and next door is home to the original Fresnel lens used in the lighthouse, which is free for all to enter. Parking is $10 at Robert Moses, which isn’t covered by the library pass (but can be covered with an Empire Pass!).

If you’re thinking of going with kids, here are a few things I’d know before you go:

👟 Good walking shoes are a must. There are 182 winding stairs to the top.

📏 Check the height requirement. Kids have to be at least 42” tall to climb the tower.

💦 Bring water. Especially if you’re going in the summer—you’ll feel those stairs!

🚶‍♀️ Plan for a walk. From Robert Moses State Park Field 5, it’s about a ¾-mile walk to the lighthouse, so little legs may need some encouragement (& snacks 😂).

🏖️ Make a day of it! Continue on down the walking path for about another mile & visit Kismet. Head to the beach or the village to enjoy lunch, coffee, and ice cream. 😋

And my biggest tip: check your local library before paying full price for museum admission! Our library’s museum pass program has been such a fun way to find new places to explore with the kids. 🩷

Spend a long weekend in Lake George, NY 🏞️☀️

This was probably one of my favorite family adventures to date. Full of new experiences, outdoor adventure and lots of unplugged time together as a family.
