MONTAUK POINT LIGHTHOUSE. Five miles from the
quaint fishing village of Montauk, which is rich in Indian
and Colonial history, stands the octagonal tower of
Montauk Point Lighthouse. Authorized in 1795 by
President George Washington, the tower was completed
in 1796. Jutting far out to sea, it stands on the slender
seapoint tip of Long Island.
Here's to the land of rocks and waves,
Once the home of Montauk Indian Braves;
Over hills and plain they hunted the quail,
Here's to the end of the Sunrise Trail.
