Goose Rocks Light

Goose Rocks Light is a sparkplug lighthouse located near North Haven, Maine in Penobscot Bay.

[2][3][4] It stands at the eastern entrance to the Fox Islands Thoroughfare, a busy mile-wide passage separating North Haven from Vinalhaven.

The Maine town of North Haven occupies a large eponymous island in the south center of Penobscot Bay.

It is a sparkplug lighthouse, a four-level tapered structure with walls of cast iron plating set on a concrete base.

[2] The light station was established in 1890, at a time when Vinalhaven was the site of major granite quarries, and both communities were attracting a significant number of summer visitors.
