Review for Lighthouse Marina

RO water available for approx $0.75/gallon (Feb 2023). Very convenient for vessels anchored just outside the harbour.
They were readily agreeable to allowing us to use their dinghy dock while we visited the lighthouse.
The lighthouse is not to be missed. The residents of Hope Town are justifiably proud of this landmark. It is the last kerosene-lit lighthouse in the world. The rotation of the fresnel lens is still powered by weights raised on a hand-cranked drum, akin to the mechanism of a grandfather clock. The keepers who reside on-premises, Jeffery and Jackson, have done a marvelous job of maintaining, restoring, and preserving the lighthouse and are readily available to answer any questions to might have about the operation and history about this iconic and functional structure.View location on the Waterway Guide Explorer

Fuel, souvenir/tackle and liquor store on site. Marine store has good supplies and the shipyard has additional supplies. Clean bathroom and laundry. The lighthouse is 'right there' and the neighboring marina has a bar/restaurant and swimming pool. A quick dinghy ride to any of the free docks makes sightseeing and provisioning (limited stock) a breeze
