Preserve Mark Island Light

Preserve Mark Island Light Mark Island Light Mark Island Light lies one nautical mile off of Stonington, Maine at the western end of Deer Isle Thorofare. The keeper's house burned in 1959.

The 25 foot square tower was built in 1857 and first lit on New Year's Day 1858. In 1998, ownership was transferred to the Island Heritage Trust. There is no proper landing facility or buildings to visit, but once a year, on Lighthouse Weekend, the Trust opens up the tower to visitors - given the seas are agreeable and people are able to scuttle ashore from row boats. Mark Island Light is best seen by boat trip or from the Sand Beach Road scenic turnout.
