Located in Eastham, Massachusetts, the Three Sisters of Nauset are a trio of historic lighthouses built in 1892. Originally positioned along the eroding cliffs to guide mariners through the treacherous Cape Cod waters, these distinctive towers were eventually moved inland to preserve them from the encroaching shoreline.

What makes them notable is their unique grouping—few lighthouse trios remain in the United States. While the towers are not open to public climbing, visitors can walk the grounds and photograph these charming structures up close.

The best photography occurs during golden hour, when warm light illuminates the white towers against Cape Cod’s coastal backdrop. Nearby attractions include Nauset Light Beach, Coast Guard Beach, and the Cape Cod National Seashore trails.
